So I would really like to post a new pic for our new house, but I need new batteries. :) Anywho thought I would tell you a little bit about our first week.
Saturday night we didn't get anything put together, well, the babies bed doesn't come apart, so it doesn't count. So the boys slept on mattress's on the floor, and since our room is also the laundry room (BOO) we didn't have enough room to put the bed up yet. So off to the couches we went. Sunday morning, 8:30am, doing dishes, boys playing downstairs, nice quiet morning...should have known better. Neighbor walks up the road in her night dress, odd, then I see my two boys tailing her, heads down. *huge sigh* This is NOT the way I wanted to meet our new neighbors. It seems they went around the corner, across the bridge, around another corner so they are directly behind us now, and into their back yard, and down to the river. Nice. When she asked them if their Mom knew where they were, Canyon refused to talk, and Talon simply said, "I can't explain right now." This is to become his mantra for the week. We get dressed and went back to the duplex and picked up a couple more loads of misc stuff, including the fringe stuff, just not the freezer stuff. Mac and Cheese for dinner, again. Monday, Rob's boss sent him home to unpack (YES) we went to Home Depot spent waay to much getting sprinkler heads, blinds, yard tools, door knobs, dead bolts, smoke alarms ect. Then off to the duplex again to get the last load, and clean. Back home, had a major melt down over my lost cake/casserole pan. How on earth can I possible cook tator tot casserole without my pan?! I was a little tired, and waaay over reacted, my poor family!! Can you believe it was in the bathroom box? My hubby had filled up the hot tub, however, it was anything but hot, and his shivering couldn't convince me otherwise. Two days later its hot enough!! Wahoo I love having a hot tub!
I'm still unpacking, wandering through a maze of boxes to get from room to room. Yesterday when the Comcast guy got here, I finally had it with the boxes and started moving them all down stairs. I will bring them up one at a time when I'm ready to unload them.
Tomorrow is the great yard clean up day! I trimmed some of the berry bushes, one of the neighbors who helped the old man keep his yard up said she couldn't remember if they were Oregon or Washington berries. Either way, one bit me, and it got all itchy and swelly like a mosquito bite. ewww. So I will spend Saturday in a long sleeve shirt and gloves in 90 degree weather, go me! Actually I'm really excited, yard work is waay better then house work any day! And now I have a hot tub to relax in when we are done. :D
