Fun Weekend

I had a really good weekend. Yesterday, my friends and I threw my our good friend Mel a baby shower. She is such a cute preganant lady! I can't wait for her little one to arrive. It was so nice to see everyone and to visit. It feels like it has been a long time for all of us to just hang out and chat. My friend Randi did such a great job of setting things up and getting things together for the shower. Thanks Rand!

Tomorrow is the big day!

Well tonight will be our first night sleeping in the new house! I can't wait. I am excited and nervous for tomorrow. I have no idea what my first day will be like.

Moving in went VERY smoothly. Thank you everyone for all the help. We really appreciated it. The whole thing took 8 people, 2 trucks, 2 trailers, 1 trip to camp, and 3 hours. That is just the moving part. Now the unpacking part is taking a little bit longer. I spent a couple of days over there last week during my "unemployment". I am super glad I decided to take a couple of days in between the two jobs.

Right now I am just trying to find window coverings for all of the windows in the house. It feels like there are so many. As for pictures, I still need to post them but we currently don't have a computer or internet so . . . Right now I am using my parents.

A small kink in the plans

Well yesterday I went to camp to sign our housing agreement and to clean the house before the big move this weekend. Well, when I got there I found out that at some point this week the furnace stopped working so they had to do some plumbing work and replace the toilet. And it was sooooo cold in there that when I tried to spray some cleaner and wipe it up, it was slush haha. So it looks like I will be going tonight to try to get the cleaning done. Hopefully it will be warm.

I think that the guyss are going to do some moving tonight and then the rest tomorrow. I am so happy that is it going to be in the 40's tomorrow and sunny so it will be a great day to move! I took some pictures yesterday but I packed my the cable to upload them to my computer. Maybe after the weekend I can share some photos.

Up and Running

Well, I figured if I am going to do this, I better get it up and running so here it is! News from the Valley, which I found to be appropriate since we are now moving to the Des Moines River Valley. If anyone comes to visit you may be surprised by the lanscape. Like Amber said "I didn't know Iowa had hills like this". It is really a beautiful location. I am going to go there on Sunday to clean the house so I will post pictures next week.

This is a work in progress, please stand by
