Well, after a week of unpacking boxes, our home is nearly put together. It is a beautiful thing, and...may I say, a beautiful home. Surprisingly, all our stuff has fit in rather nicely in this lovely huge home. There is a little more space between things, but it still looks lovely.
There are a few things we are missing to make it complete, a few large area rugs, a dining room table (our former dining room table looks incredible in the huge kitchen and our former kitchen table has been relegated, in a broken down form, to the basement, for now--it may enjoy another life as a large coffee table in the third floor media room) and a couple of sets of bunkbeds for grandkids.
There are random boxes stacked here and there (and a whole mess of them in the basement, full and empty), but we (I unpack and Dad takes care of the empty boxes) can keep working on that.
Oh, I almost forgot, the garage is totally unusable as a garage. Maybe at some point Dad will have time to take care of that (but until we have to scrape frost from our car windows, it just doesn't seem to be a priority).
Dad, Marquie and I have officially been put to work in the ward. As the YM/YW Presidents. (Even now it makes me laugh, just to write it down.) and Marquie as the seminary class president.
Even though we anticipate being very busy in our lives, we feel that big empty of this beautiful home and beg you all...COME VISIT!!!!!!

I hate unpacking, so I am glad to hear that it is coming along nicely. You'll have to send some interior pictures to entice us! :) Maybe if people would quit getting married we could travel east instead of west. Sounds fun!
How long do you anticipate staying there? Moving again just sounds miserable.
We have a contract on this home until the end of June. The owners will put it back on the market in March. I suppose they would let us stay as long as it doesn't sell.
I will post interior pictures when I can get someone to take them and download them. We have lots of room!
