• It’s been CRAZY!

  From June 04, 2008 @ 9:29 am

  I had no idea moving would be this insane! Almost all of stuff is moved in and so far the only thing that is really left undone is the living room (pictures will be coming soon!)

  We sadly do not have the internet so right now I’m doing laundry at my parent’s and trying to do a few updates while I’m here.

  In the past week we’ve slept at three different houses and have had a dog to watch. We took him home on Monday and although its more lonely without him and I did enjoy having him around, I can get more unpacking done.

  I cannot tell you how wonderful God has been through all of this. Everything seems to be working out perfectly. Yesterday we were given an over-sized leather Lazyboy recliner (looked brand new) that fits perfectly into our living room and there’s a rumor that we might be given a really, really nice sound system with a DVD and VCR player. All of our furniture seems to be fitting “just right” with inches to spare and any fear that I had about living in Norristown in completely gone. I could not love living in our apartment any more.

  So hopefully by the end of the week we’ll be all situated. Yesterday was our anniversary (two years!) and it was nice to spend in the new apartment. We’ve been taking pictures along the way but sadly our camera battery charger is still in the muck somewhere :-).

• Small Update: We’re *Moving This Weekend!

  From May 30, 2008 @ 9:59 am

  Just wanted to let everyone know why we’ve been relatively silent over the past week. We were in Kansas City (as Jessie let you all know about) until this Wednesday. Yesterday, Jess spent the entire day virtually packing up our entire room sans the big furniture and after I got home we packed almost all of it into our minivan. Then we trucked over to the Ambroses because we had committed to watching their dog, CJ, for the weekend. We’re taking it easy this morning which is why I’m writing this and for the rest of the weekend we’re going for a push into the new apartment.

  So, please forgive us if we haven’t found time to do much posting. ;)

  We’ll get back soon.

• We’re Moving!

  Everything is happening at once! Yay! This is a HUGE answer to prayer. We’ve been praying about God moving us into Norristown since before we were married and its finally happening! We’ll be cleaning out the place on Saturday, and then moving in the last weekend in May (Lord-willingly).

  Here are the cool floor plans that I drew:

  

  From L to R: first floor, second floor (you can click on them for a larger view). It’s a 3 bedroom, 1 full bath (which is on the first floor) with two bedrooms upstairs and one of them downstairs. At this point our bedroom will be on the first floor because I don’t want to walk down stairs to get to the bathroom 3X/night in my third trimester :-).

  Here are some other pictures that we took when the previous family was still living there:

  From top to bottom: This is one of the bedrooms upstairs that they made into a nursery. We’ll probably do the same thing when the baby’s a little bit older.

  The next picture is the right side of the kitchen.

  The last picture is of an area in the living room. I’m liking the cove :-).
