Good morning Ladies and welcome to my blog from our new home !!! This week has been quite the rollercoaster so we will get into it . On Sunday evening our good friends Brandon Josette and daughter Maddi came over for a last meal together in our old house. He also dropped off this really long trailer for us to pack the last of our household items into . It belongs to a friend of his and we are grateful for the loan of it.
After packing boxes with all sorts of items , from different parts of the house , we had everything cleared out at 11:28 am on Tuesday morning. We were leaving our home of 15 years for the last time and it was emotional ( I am tearing up now writing this!) The memories will last forever in photos and video.
At 1pm we signed for the new house and by 1:45 we got the keys , it was ours! The house was in really good shape, ( we had done a walkthrough the evening before and they had lots of unpacking to do at that stage!) It took a while for it to sink in that this was ours! It is so much more spacious for a family of 6 and we love it now. We unloaded the trailer into the garage on that first evening, we also have the rest of our stuff in storage. We stayed at a hotel the first and second night , as Wednesday we had the carpets cleaned and also the central air ducts cleaned as one of our boys has allergies and we wanted a fresh start. On Thursday my in-laws came to help with unpacking , and all the assembly that was needed . They stayed overnight with us and left at noon Friday, they were a huge help!!!
Also on Friday our daughter celebrated her 14th Birthday , so we wanted to make it special for her also! We had a meal at home and sang happy birthday with her favorite cake . I can’t believe 14 already!!!
Today we are going to be doing some more assembly and unpacking!
I will have more to come later!

Have a lovely 4th of July if you are celebrating where you are , take care , Terri xo.
Hi Terri! And with all that work of moving and your daughter’s birhtday to celebrate, you still made time to write! You amaze me! You have left your house, but you will always keep your memores!
We are helping our sons with their moves and I find it very difficult to blog. I can’t believe we’re halfway through July already. My husband is painting both our sons’ houses – every room, every wall. He also painted the houses they sold. I’ll be glad when they’re settled. We have been planning to move but have not found the right house yet. So there is more work to do ahead: painting and packing and moving.
Thanks for the peek into your new kitchen! Looking forward to more photos of your lovely new home!
God bless your home with peace and love!

We are visiting our oldest son and family in their new home right now for a few days, my husband did more painting–our 5th time visiting and there’s always another room to paint, it’s huge house. However, we do have moments to relax while enjoying being with them and our grandchildren. I’ll check out you new post!
Happy Sunday filled with blessings from above!
