Two days of work down and several boxes left to unpack, we are slowly getting settled in. We finally got cable & internet today so here are a few pictures from the house and an update of our last week.

Last week Wednesday our closing went great! Surprise- no problems with closing in 2 1/2 weeks..our realtor and loan officer were both nervous about the time frame, but everything went off without a hitch. After the closing we headed to the house to clean before everything was unloaded. Thankfully, my mom came over to help clean. She & Jason spent at least 3 hours straight cleaning. I helped a little, but observed more! The movers unloaded all of our things that evening and we began unpacking a few boxes. Since it was late and we had no food we opted for Casey's pizza for our first meal in the house, but on Saturday when we had our first "home-cooked" meal we made sure it was tacos! We unpacked Thursday morning and a little in the afternoon before heading out of town.

Jason left for Missouri to get some more turkey hunting in and my dad, Kyle, & I headed to Ohio for a Southdown show & sale. Jason was successful in his hunting and got a bird Saturday afternoon- thank goodness! He didn't get any pictures because I had the camera with me. Dad, Kyle, & I were successful at the sale too, but not so much with the hotel I found for us to stay at. I don't think I will be allowed to book rooms anymore! It was cheap, but we definitely won't be staying there again or at least I won't!!

Jason & I both returned home Saturday evening and have gotten a few more boxes unpacked and a few things put away. The house is still a mess, but probably will be for another week or so...we have plans for the next few weekends so it is after work when get to unpack things. Most of the boxes in the garage were in storage while we lived in Minnesota so I'm pretty sure there isn't anything we really need in them.

I have my first doctors appointment in Springfield tomorrow so Jason & I will get to meet my new doctor. Only 42 days left until my due date- where in the world did all the time go?!?! Hopefully now that we have internet at home I can keep up with posting things! Now, on to the pictures...

There is tons of landscaping and lots of flowers to take care of...if we ever get to them! I'm not sure why I don't have any pictures of the front of the house, but I will take some & get some posted eventually.
