Moved in and moving on!!

We started moving into our home on February 1st and I unpacked the last box on February 13th! I can't stand living in chaos and I need to know where everything is - lol! My husband and I spent the next two weekends building shelves in a space of our basement for storage and also unpacking the boxes holding Jim's workshop/garage items. ALL boxes are now unpacked and Jim has a little organizing to do, but we are probably 95% moved in and settled.

Today wasn't a bright sunny day, but I took pictures anyway to print and send to my MIL and so decided to go ahead and post them here! (I still had some cleaning to do and my dogs love to bomb my pictures!) We still have furniture to buy and some areas to paint/update, but we can't do much more until our other house sells. However, I am so happy with our new place and love every day that I spend in it! So, here is the tour as it is now - I will update with more pictures once we get everything just the way we want it!

So, there you have it - our new "Home Sweet Home" ... This house has so many of the features that I've always wanted in our final home. PLUS we get the addition of some pretty fabulous sunrises and mountain views when the sky is clearer. I couldn't ask for a better house in which to live the rest of my life!
