One week in

We've officially lived in our house for one whole week! It actually went by fairly slowly, which is surprising, given the amount of stuff there was (and still is) to do.

Last Monday was our first night in the house, and by the time evening fell, we were all exhausted. The boys went to day camp, and before I could even drop them off, the unpackers had arrived. They were gone by nine, which means they spend a grand total of 1 hour at our house. We only had them unpack breakable items, such as dishes. There were also 3 of them, so it went really fast.

The rest of the day was spent putting things away, mainly sorting out the kitchen. Hubby got pictures on the walls, some mirrors up, and connected all the components for the television. Speakers, PS3, Wii, all the fun stuff. We're getting really fast at the set-up. The boys rooms were both unpacked and set up on Saturday, before the official unpack day. I just couldn't wait to start opening boxes. The days between Friday (the unload) and Monday never seem so long as when we're waiting to unpack!

I'm going to have to backtrack on this blog for a bit, in order to post photos and stories from our drive out here. I was putting photos on my photography site, but it's just too long of a process to upload and tag the photos properly over there when there are so many.

We had little to no internet up until now, including the drive across, so my apologies to all of you who have been waiting for Kelso's adventure to commence. I'm working on it now, as time allows. As you can imagine, having the boys home for the summer plus unpacking and setting up a house, as well as getting used to our new city is taking up much of my time right now.
