4 Boxes

4 boxes...that's all we have left to unpack.

Tomorrow will mark 2 weeks since our move, and it's been a blur.

Moving has been an experience.
Mostly bad. 

Not that Stephenville is bad, just the process. 

There has literally been some problem at every turn.

But, it seems that we are now almost completely settled and things are starting to calm down. 

As we get our stuff in place, the rental house is not so bad.
And, as of Saturday, our house in Austin has been painted, cleaned, tile and grout steamed and is move in ready. Hopefully we will have renters by the end of this week.

The kids like the new placement of the TV...they can really get into their shows

Some awesome positives:

• Everything is within 10 minutes from the house. Grocery, work, day care
• The toy room...never realized how nice it could be to reclaim our living room
• Satellite TV...catching up on True Blood, Nurse Jackie and Eastbound and Down...priceless
• Video surveillance at the kids' school. Never realized how much FUN it is to spy on the monkeys during the day

Let's see...in the almost two weeks we have been here, we celebrated Daddy Day, a birthday, Billy settled into his new job, I started orientation at my new job, the cat ran away...and miraculously made it back, I made eventful trips to local lumber and hardware stores, aaaaaaaaand I've been sewing. Cray cray!

Daddy Day present from the bebes

 

 Poor Daddy didn't have much of a Daddy Day. He spent most of the day unpacking the SECOND Uhaul truck and doing other manual labor. He's been working so hard. We love the Daddy Daddy!!
