Things have been busy around here! As of last Monday, I have not been able to enter the front two rooms and a good portion of the basement. Our household is officially a party of four... Lisa has moved in and will be staying with us for the next few months!
As one of her first orders of business, she graced us with some babysitting so that Jon and I could go out on our first date in months! I wish we could say that we did something more exciting, but for a Wednesday night we went to Olive Garden and enjoyed a free meal, courtesy of some gift cards from family. We had a great time and left stuffed, but with plenty of leftovers. Lisa took this picture while she was watching Kira, and she seems to be enjoying the opportunity to be a 24-7 auntie. I just hope that comes with a lot more babysitting! :)
This is it! Our last day as residents of Olney. Even though it means sleeping on a mattress in the dining room...Adamstown, here we come!
Today's it is official! We are now the owners of an amazing first home. In fact, it may be the only home that we ever own, if all goes well. We really think it has the potential to become everything that we want it to be. There are many improvements that need to be done, but we're excited.Many boxes are packed, but many more still to go, and we will begin moving soon. Thankfully, we have a nice window of time to clean, paint, and replace the carpet in the new house before we bring things in. Our last day in Olney is officially June 30, so we don't have to rush. But, I will be sad to return our keys to our landlord; I lived here with Lisa, Jon proposed here, and we spent our first two years of marriage here. I will definitely miss the Olney area and the condo that has been my home for the last 3 years, but at least I can happily say that we are movin' on up! I am very grateful that my mom is able to help me clean and pack, and Matt is willing to help Jon move everything. We are so lucky!I will post pictures of our house progress as soon as I unpack the camera cord!
