A sad little picture, but you get the idea

Moving has always been an adventure for me.  I'm not one of those people who hates moving, of course I hate the actual moving part, but I love moving because I know the next move is going to be so much better than the last.  We started looking at houses even before we were married, but didn't get serious until the beginning of this year.  Luckily we had an awesome real estate agent, who just happens to be like my second mom, who spent so time and had great patience with us until we found the perfect house for our little family.
When we found it, we sold our house (which was only on the market for 2 weeks before we had a contract!!), and put an offer on our new home.  It all went like clockwork, until the renovations started.  It's a great house and has fabulous bones (Adam hates that term), but it needed a lot of "love" and some updating.  Adam and I are not decorators or contractors so we enlisted the help of our friend Brittany who took on the project and went full speed ahead.  We have new sheetrock, new paint, new recessed lighting, new stove hood, and so much more.

We have been living with my very wonderful and tolerant parents since June 17th.  It's been relatively seemless, but we are ready to move on and get our new life started, and give back mom and dad theirs.  So tonight, we hope will be our first night in our new home! 

On the agenda, swim, grill out, watch our brand new tv and drink wine!  Sounds like a dream, doesn't it?  We can't wait!
