Our First House

After a whirlwind week of closing, painting, packing, and moving we are finally here!  We were so blessed to have Mimi and Grandad here to entertain the babers all week.  I'm sure he was a little confused about everything being in boxes and then sleeping in a new house, but he had his Grandparents here to spoil him throughout the process, so of course he was thrilled!    Aunt Jen flew all the way from Minnesota to help us paint.  And paint we did.  For three days straight.  After some "perfect white" drama (literally trying 3 different whites on the walls) we finally finished both bedrooms, the living room, dining room, kitchen and laundry room.  Insane.  I couldn't have done it without Jen's rolling abilities and crazy energy level!  More photos to come as we start to unpack and put our house together!
