We're Here!!

Last Thursday was the big move in day and we've been busy unpacking ever since. We've finally made it through the majority of boxes and they've been broken down and things are making their way up to the attic. So, in a sense, we're settling in. In the midst of the move, I came down with the stomach bug Saturday night and Ella was diagnosed with the Flu yesterday. So, we're all on medicine to hopefully prevent the rest of us from getting it. Ella is pitiful looking and it is breaking my heart to see her in this miserable shape.

We had record setting rain fall the past couple of days and now the tank in the backyard is full, and full of fish. Mark stocked it the day we moved in and right in time for the big rain. None have floated to the top, so it seems that they are doing okay for the moment.

Thanks to my sis-in-law, Jackie, who totally helped me organize myself and clean out my closet. I was able to get rid of a lot of stuff that I had kept around and now I have a beautiful closet. I love it!! Mark has also gotten super organized and our pantry is actually a neat place to visit. Ha! There is still alot to be done, but I thought I would update everyone since my internet got connected today! Hopefully I can post pictures soon, but I haven't even had a chance to pull out the camera so sorry you'll have to wait.

I'm glad it is going so fast for you guys. I am sure it is fun in a way to do all the organizing and stuff in a new house. I loved moving in our house in fort worth and everything had a place, but when we moved into the rent house in abilene... well lets just say I still have a few boxes I haven't unloaded. (sad) But congrats on the move and I hope you guys are all better soon. That is bad timing on getting sick. Hope you didn't puke on the new floors.

I don't know you really well, but I do know Mark from high school. We just moved 2 weekends ago and I CAME DOWN WITH THE stomach bug the day before we moved!!!! It was crazy. Why do these thing happen?
Being in a new house is so stinking fun!!!! Congratulations!!
