Unpacking…
Above is a picture Joe took of the house. We’ve officially moved in and have begun the hard task of finding just the right spot for all of our stuff. The house is really coming along and looks completely different on the inside…it’s more our style now.
If you haven’t checked out the Container Store, I’d recommend it. I think it’s a little pricy but great for those hard-to-find organization items. I’m looking forward to my second visit. My sister, mom, and I also went to Crate & Barrel…which is one of my favorite stores. I found some napkins that are absolutely perfect to make into pillows for the living room. They really bring all of the colors together. I hope to get those done as soon as I can hit the Tall Mouse near the house to get a few more supplies I need for the project.
We haven’t been online lately but we should have a fully functional office either today or tomorrow. I think DSL is getting installed today.
Joe and I brought the kitties over on Saturday night and they’ve taken to the new house very well. They seem quite comfortable…as are we.
Now…which box has my underwear in it?

Hi Monique! I think you guys made great use of Judy’s parents
sliding doors. I will have to share your picture with her brother.
We are thrilled that you guys are finally moved in.
Tue Mar 28, 2006 at 7:50 amThanks Don! We are so happy that we could use the doors…they’re just perfect and now we have something to remember our third set of “grandparents”, Louis and Francis. I think of them every time I look at the door.
Tue Mar 28, 2006 at 11:10 amThat’s funny–I just made napkins out of my pillows!
Tue Mar 28, 2006 at 1:19 pmIt’s really a wonderful house. As usual - Joe and Monique have done a wonderful job!
Tue Mar 28, 2006 at 4:10 pmThanks! Joe hung the first piece of artwork today and we’ve managed to unpack our clothes. So, things are coming along. We’re trying to do a little each day. Joe has the week off and has done a bulk of the contractor appointments and leg work this week. I’m doing what I can in the evenings. Tonight we’re expecting our first Vons.com delivery. We wanted to give it a shot. It’s very convenient so far.
Wed Mar 29, 2006 at 4:53 pmEverything looks great with the house. I am so happy for you guys!! Tell me how the Vons.com stuff goes.. Dan and I were going to try it..we keep getting free coupons. My friend at work raves about it.. she says you get much better produce than in the stores..
