Last night, I packed up one of the cars with a few boxes and headed to the new house. Luckily, we got the keys a few days early, so we are able to paint and get things ready for the big move on Saturday. Granted, it was only one wall that needed painting, but that's something at least. The first coat is on and I'll have to go over for a second coat in the next couple of days. Leonard and Penny were super excited about their room still having a green wall when we move. The thing that they are most excited for is the giant backyard. Right now, they've been playing in a mostly concrete, 15' x 15' backyard. The new yard is gigantic and it will give the kids the chance to run and run for hours. The yard should provide some very restful nights for everyone, as the kids run themselves down to nothing.
The house is so much nicer than we even imagined it could be. It's amazing how fresh and new everything looks with cleaned carpets and a fresh coat of paint on the interior. We move Saturday morning and have our monthly meeting with Marty and Kate on Monday. We fully intend on having the house look as if we've lived there for months by the time of our meeting. We'll see how that goes... but we do have a plan of attack in place.
Hopefully we can get it set up and I will be able to post pictures of the new playroom and their new bedroom over the weekend.
