Ta Da!!!

Here it is. My new house!!! It's kind-of a long video and I realized watching it back that I moved a little fast sometimes, but you get the idea anyway. You are all welcome to come visit and see it in person sometime too....we have lots of room now.

Sit back and enjoy the show....(I know, kinda corny)

A Quick Good Morning

So I know this is not what I said I would post next but I'm having a hard time getting my house to the point of showing everyone. I plan on cleaning it today and doing a video after.

This video is for Aunt Becky and Katy who have just commented that they have had enough waiting. Sorry everyone. I will try to jump back on the blogger wagon this week.

I'm way behind!!

I know that some of you are probably wondering... "Where are the house pictures?", "Where are the pictures of Sarah's birthday?", "Where is Angie?". All that I have to say is.......I'm sorry. I know that I've been a bad blogger lately. I have good excuses (I think) for all the questions you may be having.

I have several posts to catch you all up on but I'm not quite ready yet. I just wanted you all to know that I'm still here. I'm just trying to get all settled into the new house and get Jacob finish with school (there will be pictures of that too). So please don't give up on me, I will update you all soon.

If you want to read some funny stories of Ben click here and here . My sister-in-law has been writing some great stories of their childhood. I'm sure you will laugh.

I will be back soon!!!

W.O.W. Update

So I'm not quite ready for the video tour yet but I will tell you how I did this week. I actually feel good about how much has gotten done.

All of the bedrooms are totally unpacked. I've got a couple of things to hang up but other then that they are done. The office has one box left. I was going to tackle it but the computer stuff is kind-of Ben's area (he's been doing other projects) and I didn't want to "mess" it up. Like I said last week, the kitchen is done and the family room and living room are close. I actually thought I was done with the family room until last night when Ben was working in the garage and found another box. Will it ever be done?

I promise that I will do a walk through with my camera soon. It's just not quite ready yet.

Have a good day everyone!!

Another W.O.W.

Well Becky is doing it again. She is hosting another Within One Week carnival.

She says that it doesn't have to be a cleaning or household goal but what better goal for me then to unpack my house!! Last time was packing and now that I'm in my new house I am finding it just as challenging to unpack the boxes as it was to pack the boxes.

I've already got my kitchen unpacked...priorities right? So my goal will be to get all 3 of our bedrooms and the office totally unpacked and "set up". I think that it should be pretty easy for me to get done but I'm constantly getting interrupted by one of my 4 kids.

Hopefully next week I will be all set up and be able to give you a video tour of our new house.

Don't forget to stop by and see Becky , cheer her on and maybe join in on the fun.

Talk to you all next week!

We've moved!!!

Hey everybody! I just wanted to let you know that we are in our new house now. We slept here on Tuesday night and I'm am wading through boxes and boxes of stuff. Sorry I haven't been a better blogger but I knew that if I even looked at my computer I would get sucked in for hours :)

As soon as I get things in their places I will take some pictures and let you see my new home. I don't figure you want to see pictures of my boxes :)

I also want to tell you about the winery opening too. It was a blast and although I didn't take pictures myself I think I can get some to post.

Okay....off to unpack some more....I'll update soon.

W.O.W. Update

Well I figured that I should probably update you all on the my packing real quick. I say "real quick" because I'm still elbows deep in the packing. We got lots done over the weekend and I've been working hard this week to finish up. We aren't actually moving until Tuesday but we are leaving for the weekend for the Grand Opening of the winery.

I decided not to actually count the boxes (sorry) but I will tell you about the rooms I have gotten finished. Keep in mind that we are still living here so the "except for(s)" are because of that. The kitchen is done (except for a few things to "get by" on), all of the 4 bedrooms (except for a few cloths) are done, the Master Bath is done, the living room is done and the family room (except for the TV, computer and Wii) is done. So out of 10 rooms, 8 of them are "mostly" done. I feel pretty good about what we have gotten done. I am pretty sure that we will be ready to move by Saturday morning when we head to Omak and let me tell you I will be drinking some of the RockWall wine while I'm there!! I'm very glad that's the reason for the trip. :)

So that's my update. I plan on taking pictures of our new house when we get settled. Thanks for all of the support and suggestions from you all. It sure helped keep me motivated!!

Have a great Memorial Day Weekend!!
