And the moving begins

We closed on the new house on Thursday so we're trying to get as much done before we move in next Saturday.  We decided first on the list was to put up a privacy fence.  The neighbors to the south of us already had a fence so we were able to hook right into theirs.  So Friday night Jake, Craig, John (new neighbor) and Joel (new neighbor) got all the post holes dug in a few hours and then they had all the posts set in concrete that night.  Luckily they all had enough beer that they didn't realize how sore they were till the next morning :)  Craig and Jake (with the help of my dad after he got done painting the bedrooms, hallway, living room and kitchen, yes he fast and awesome if anyone is looking for a painter!) finished the rest of the fence by 9pm on Saturday!  It looks so good and make our yard look so big!  The boys and Tucker are going to love it.

I had also sent the boys over night with my Mom and Dad on Friday night so Miranda, Pam and I got my whole kitchen moved over and organized as well.  It feels good to have that project done!  I babysit my niece over the summer and today was her first day here and we decided to make cookies for the big moving day on Saturday.  We ended up making a double batch of chocolate chip cookies, mixing the dough up in the one pan I left at the house and cooked them all on the one cookie sheet I left at the house. :)  It's going to be a busy week of moving stuff each night but I'm excited to get all moved in on Saturday and start unpacking and decorating!!!
