We've moved in... well, pretty much...

We moved into our new home over the weekend. Jason took an extra day off, and we really did need all four days to get things done. We had our hands full working on getting all of us and our stuff moved in, but we're in the new house! It's been so fun to get to know our new home and get more comfortable in it. We don't have blinds up yet, but we're hoping for them before the end of the week (it's added to our new home adventure to have to change clothes in the closets!). The company we had contracted to landscape the back yard called and told us that they were going out of business, so we are in the process of looking for someone else to help us turn our dirt into a yard right now. And while everything is now physically IN the new house, it's not quite organized or decorated yet - but we'll get there! So, here is our blog-tour of the place:

Kristen's favorite flower in the front yard
(just for fun!)

Our new welcome mat
Tyler coming in the door

The living room

Looking out of the kitchen at the family room
The kitchen
The den -
err, looks like we need to do some more unpacking here...

The back patio


The downstairs "powder room"

The garage (without Jason's car in it)

The loft

(we don't really have any furniture in here yet, but it works really well as a great play room for the kids as is anyway!)


The master bedroom


The sinks in the master bathroom

(the bathroom is quickly becoming Kristen's second favorite room, outdone only by the kitchen so far)


The kids' bathroom


The laundry room


Kristen doesn't want to put pictures of the kids rooms on the blog until we've had more of a chance to decorate. So those will be coming soon.
