We Did It!

Okay, well, we did it about a week ago...but it has taken us the extra week to be able to sit in the living room after the girls go down, relax and not feel like we should be unpacking boxes! We are in!

It is awesome! And I say this all the time because it just seems so unreal, but the living room in our new house is the size of the entire first floor of our old house. (which, by the way, included our kitchen, living room, dining room and foyer!) Its not that our old house was that much smaller square foot wise, but it was all vertical. The new house is a story and a half; and let me tell you, the difference is life changing! (and I'm not kidding!) I'm not sure who likes it best - Mom, Dad, the kiddos...or Nellie! (I think the new space has added at least two years on good old Nellie girls life!)

So I will post some pictures soon of the house, but below are a few of the move in process...

Of course the girls loved the boxes...

...K loved the boxes so much, one afternoon she crawled in and took a two hour nap! (you can barely see her, but shes in there!)

We got a little snow last week; this is the view from our backyard...we are in Kirkwood, but it looks like Ozark County! The first "barn" you see is Patrick's "no girls allowed" hide-out...

And with all the extra space the girls each have their own TV watching chair. (in fact all the furniture we own is in this room; our "formal" living room is completely empty!)
