Before & After

Sorry for the delay in the blog updates, we have been incredibly busy unpacking and organizing the house! Scott and I celebrated our six month anniversary by moving into our new house. Our movers were awesome, they "unpacked" every box for us and got rid of all the packing paper and boxes for us. But by "unpack" I mean they just took everything out of boxes and put it on the floor... so we've been busy trying to find a place for everything so our life can be a little more organized.

On the bright side... with exception of this week (lots and lots of rain)... the weather has been pretty great! I was finally able to wear something other than sweaters and jackets and even got to a point where I actually thought it was hot out one day :) But beyond that, continued prayer for dry weather would be greatly appreciated as we are still unable to get our septic repaired. This means we are still unable to take long showers, run the dishwasher, or do laundry at the house. But besides that minor inconvenience, we are thrilled to no longer be living in a hotel room!

Other than that, life is pretty wonderful. Scott's job is going extremely well and I have had a couple of interviews myself... But let's be honest, I'm not exactly dying to go back to work just yet! I've been so busy with the house (and reading the entire Harry Potter series... seriously... read it!) that I'm not sure how we would get everything done if we were both working. So we will just wait and see what doors God opens up and go from there. We have found a church that we really love and in a complete and total God thing, we were invited to join another community group of married couples which we will go to next week. God is good!

Alright, for all of you who are wanting to see progress on the house, here are a few before and after pictures for you (keep in mind pictures and curtains still need to be hung, but its a start):
