it was a stressful day closing our house AND moving in the same day (don't recommend doing that!) but with the help of awesome friends, we are officially moved in to our new house! it feels so great having our own place now and knowing that we can do whatever we want with decorating and doing projects on the house. we still don't have kitchen chairs and there's a few boxes left to be unpacked, but things are settling down and we are loving it.

we're getting so close to moving in! any excuse to go check out the house nowadays is what we do :) ...until they installed the locks on the doors so now we can't just waltz right in anymore. we're a few weeks away from moving in and that's all i have on my mind - except i'm trying to forget about the whole packing/unpacking ordeal. since we've been married, we've lived in 4 different states, so knowing that this will be the last time (for a while) that we'll have to pack up and move, it's really exciting. we're hoping it's not much longer that we'll be official home owners!

it's been so fun driving by our house once in a while to see the building stages! this is something i've dreamed about since playing "house" with my sisters. it kind of feels surreal when we go walk around inside the house, knowing that we will be living there so soon. we picture how everything will be with our furniture and how it'll be decorated and kevin and i just get so excited! we should be moving in the end of february/early march. i'm just crossing my fingers it's sooner rather than later. ;)
