Tomorrow is the Day!

By Courtney 27 Comments

We’ve FINALLY received the word…tomorrow is the day we officially become home owners once again!!

We have our closing tomorrow morning, and from there, the plan is to MOVE, MOVE, MOVE. My poor parents…we’ve been taking over their entire house for the past 5-6 weeks or so, and I’m sure they’ll be ready to not be walking all over cars every day.

Or actually be able to use their dining room once again.

Although, I know that they’re going to be sad to see us go, and it is going to be just another big adjustment for everyone involved. As much as I’ve missed having my OWN space and home to live in, I’ll be the first to admit that it’s been absolutely fabulous having a few extra sets of hands around. My parents have been so wonderful with letting us stay with them, and I really can’t thank them enough. The help, the built-in babysitting, the meals, the porch time with drinks…it’s all been so great.

Thankfully, we won’t be far away though, so they aren’t seeing the last of us. Winking smile

I’ll also admit though, I did have a bit of a moment (ok, it was quite a few moments) of intense “oh my god, this is really happening…oh my god, we’re going to be broke.” Really, we’re not, and we’ll be good…it’ll just be a bit of an adjustment for a while.

But I have nothing to complain about because we’re finally *this close* to being in our new home and continuing on with our next endeavor in life. And I’ll tell you, I cannot WAIT to begin to organize everything, because these days, I don’t know where at least half of our stuff is on any given day.

IMG_0879

Hey, throwback old bedroom set from when I was a kid!

IMG_0880

Sheesh.

I really have no idea what my posting schedule will be like in the days to come, because for one, I have no idea when we’ll have internet, and two…I’m going to have my hands full. But I’m sure I’ll find a way to check in sooner rather than later, because I can’t stay away from you all for too long. Winking smile

But I’ll say, I’m excited to feel settled once again so I can start to focus a little more on  the ol’ blog. With all that’s been going on this summer, I feel like a lot of the posts I’ve really been wanting to share have sort of been put on the back burner because I’ve been too preoccupied to really sit down and type them all out. I’ve got a bunch of different things I want to touch on (not just scratching the surface sort of chatter), and I cannot wait to get back in the kitchen and share some recipes, too! So be on the lookout, because hopefully they’ll all be on the way soon.

As for now, we’re just keepin’ on with our usual routine over here.

Last night included lots of playing with cars out on the porch (with no pants on, of course),

IMG_3256

Some snuggles, because I wouldn’t have it any other way…

IMG_3262

Some wine, because that’s just the norm these days…

IMG_3263

Some homemade sauce with pasta and meatballs…

IMG_0885

Enjoyed by everyone, obviously.

IMG_0882

And some brownies with ice cream for dessert.

IMG_0887

Oh yes, it was quite a delicious and celebratory night over here! And now, I should probably get back to attempting to start packing up some stuff…because it’s seriously everywhere.

Hope you guys are having a great week so far! <3

    How exciting! We are getting ready to move twice in the next 8 weeks (once to my parents in Floida and then to Alska!), and our first baby is due in 3.5 weeks. So, I'll be living out of boxes and trying not to get overwhelmed by chaos soon.

    We are moving tomorrow as well! So I'll keep my fingers crossed for you if you do the same for me. Ours is a local move, too, and I'm just ready to have it over and done with. I hate living among boxes and I'm ready to feel settled. I know that will take a few weeks but it can't happen if it doesn't get started so let's get this show on the road! Unfortunately, even though we aren't moving far, it makes our daycare very inconvenient so we're moving Connor, our 18-month-old, from a home daycare to a traditional one. He starts Monday and I think this change has been the hardest one for me. Connor's sitter is so wonderful and he's gotten to do so many fun things that he wouldn't have gotten to do if he'd spent his first year-and-a-half in daycare. Too bad he won't remember any of it... Can't wait to see the new digs!
