Moving Day...Week...well lets be honest...Month

We bought a house...YAY!!! Finally. Mike and I were in the process of buying the house that we currently lived in. Well that was before we were classified as a large family. So we cancelled the deal and started looking for a bigger house. The 3 bedroom 1500 sq home quickly became toooo small. So we started the search again. Then we found it...the perfect house. It is a 4 bedroom, with a study, and a bonus room that will be our homeschool/playroom. It sits on over an acre of land. Which is great for the boys...and Renee. :) It is only a couple of miles from Mike's work (seriously only 2 miles) which is only 1 mile from our old house.

Moving on the other hand has not been so fun. We have moved several times with Mike being in college then getting a job. Then we moved closer to his work. So we are experienced movers to say the least. But things change when you have kids. I never knew 3 little people would have so much stuff. You don't really see how much you have until you have to pack it up. But it is a great time to purge. So if you want some great things be sure to check gainesville craigslist (well in a couple of months :)

We started our move on Friday 4/16 and were able to get all of the kids room furniture and toys then we started in our room. We were able to sleep at the new house the first night. Which is always our goal. It is so exciting to stay at the new house the first night. Then the next few weeks we packed all the little things and the kitchen. How many things do you have to own to cook a meal?!? We own all of them. :) So finally today was the final day of the old house. We spent this last week painting Renee's pink bedroom back to a neutral. Cleaning. Getting carpets shampooed. And finally done...

Now on to unpacking. And decorating the new house of course. Which is my favorite. Mike and I have a lot of plans...maybe you will see some pictures as we do them. Let me go I just heard someone call my name...or is it the boxes?

Have a great Tuesday!
