moved in!
After a long and numbing experience, we moved into our first home on Friday. We got the call Thursday morning to set up a closing and we had the closing that afternoon. It felt so good to have that monkey off our back and I took the day off Friday to move in. We hired a moving company and that was the best money I ever spent considering how quickly they did everything, how hot it was and what a good job they did.
We spent the remainder of the weekend unpacking and organizing and buying some things for the house. Marissa's parents drove in to help us and it was great having them there to lend a hand. I know Marissa and I are so happy to be living in the house now and finally enjoying it. Funny thing is there are some kids across the street that are like 7 and 3 years old and the 7 year old likes me I guess, because whenever we are outside, he comes and says hello. I kind of feel like Mr. Wilson from "Dennis the Menace".
Speaking of the kids, yesterday I was unpacking and found an unopened Star Wars figure and was going to throw it out but decided to give it to the kids across the street. Well, I walked over there and the younger kid was there and after getting it said, "I hate Star Wars!". LOL
