So, we are officially moved! It takes about a month total, 2 weeks packing, cleaning and moving the old house and 2 weeks cleaning, unpacking and fixing up the new house. 2 weeks was pushing getting our house together, but it was my grand idea to have a housewarming/birthday party for Gracie 2 weeks after we moved in... Inviting my parents, sister, Stephens mom and friends... so not only did our house have to be ready, but those rooms that we just put boxes in to get them out of the way had to be unpacked as well. It was sooo tiring and hard, but it was worth it, we loved having our family here, and for the most part we can relax in a fully put together house now.
Gracie loves her new digs, plenty of outside for her to play in, grass instead of wood chips, flat land instead of a sloped backyard... we just let her get dirty, and dirty does she get! We used to give her baths maybe two times a week, but now it's a daily occurrence, sometimes even 2 because she likes to body paint with her food.
I love being so close to my Church, so nice to be able to walk to services and BBQ's and man... we live on 4 acres of land!!! Gracie goes on walks everyday, looks for kitties, eats blackberries, plays on the swing, plays with all the rocks... she cries when we take her in.
We went from a family who at least had the TV on in the background pretty regualry... to hardly watching it at all... For those of you who know me, know what a big feat this is. Getting chickens in the spring, starting to plant fruit trees right now, it is just so nice and relaxing to work on this house for some reason!!!
Bottom line is that we could not be happier.
Here are some pictures of it
