SOOO Close...



We are soooo close to being ready to move in! This past weekend our hardwood floors were suppose to be installed, unfortunately they weren't! We did however have the Brinks guy come and put in a good solid 8 hour work day installing our alarm! Meanwhile, Sam & I finally got our truck from U-Haul (u-haul sucks btw), so we got the guest room furniture from Natalie & Austin's place so they can make room for the baby...we took that to my parent's house, unloaded it and then loaded the truck up with furniture for our house they've been storing for us. So now we have a king size bed (no frame just yet, we couldn't get it apart so we still have to go back for it), dresser, armoire, nightstands, 2 chairs, & patio furniture. It was awesome to have Austin there to help move (see below) & it was really awesome to have a bed to sleep on Saturday night instead of our usual air mattress (see below). We decided the green we painted on the walls Friday night was WAY too minty, so we toned it down and it looks way cozier now. After Sam did some pretty professional dry-walling to our breakfast nook, I started to take on the task of refinishing our cabinets in the kitchen. They've all been primed and painted white, so now we have the scary task of doing a faux finish on them that I'm curious to try. Wish me luck! Hopefully by this Thursday/Friday we'll be moved in, the hardwoods should be going down today and tomorrow, granite this week as well. Stay tuned...
