Starting Slow
October 2nd, 2010We headed over to the house today with both cars packed with some boxes. The first thing I focused on was getting the decorative corners off the front screen door. It was difficult enough (painted over and stripped screws) that I didn’t mess around with other 3 screen doors today. But I was happy to get them off the front door at least.

Just wasn’t my style.
We let the girls check out their new playground. They love it and I have to admit it is pretty cool.
We started putting together the loot from our Ikea trip.
I’ve mentioned that I’ve been painting now and then with one of my girlfriends. I painted these pears for our new kitchen so I brought them with us today.

The pears look beautiful. Congratulations on the new home.

“The first timeout” made me laugh… lol! I can imagine how the girls are getting into the chaos of moving 🙂 Congrats on the closing and getting the keys – you must be so excited to finally be in your “OWN” family home again!! And that gorgeous house is icing on the cake!

If only that house were in Pittsburgh, then it would be PERFECT. It’s pretty darn close right where it is, though.

I agree, the door looks better!!
I cannot wait to see this place once you move in and get settled. It’s nice that you can go slowly. You’ll have to do a video tour!!
