I’ve uploaded some more house pictures to the flickr account to your left. Just click on any one of them and you’ll be able to see them all. Not too much is new here. I’m enjoying the new place and am, for the most part, moved in. I think it’s likely that I’ll continue unpacking boxes for the rest of my life, but I have the essentials unpacked.
I’ve been moved in for just over two weeks now. It’s funny – I remember looking at the house and thinking, wow, it’s really move-in ready. I can’t really think of anything that I even need to do to feel comfortable living there, this is great. Well, well, well. My dad and mom will attest to something slightly different. We spent the first weekend (at least my mom & I) doing some serious deep cleaning. The refrigerator, the stove, and the entire house. And this followed me coming down on week nights after work the week prior and investing some time with my then best friend, soft scrub. It was DIRTY! Anyway, my mom and I cleaned like wild women while my dad fixed the plumbing, re-grouted parts of the shower, sanded down the shower window (who puts a wood window in a shower?!), tore out nasty shelving, and probably countless other things that I’ll never even know about.
The inside is now comfortable to live in, but I see projects! I think however, it’s time to move outside. The yard needs some sprucing and i’ll have to get it in shape before things start really blooming and blossoming. It will be fun though – I’m looking forward to rolling up my sleeves with this one. Talk to you all soon.

Jen, you are always welcome! I may not have much to offer – it’s one bed, one bath, and very small – but there’s always an open door for you guys. Really though, you should stop by next time you’re in town … it’d be fun to see you guys!

Aloha Emily,
I’m not sure if that was Jen that replied because I thought I saw Tam writing you that comment. I could be wrong. Anyways we were checking out your blog and seeing if you posted more pics. We pray and hope that you’ll be able to make it to Hawaii for our wedding (especially since you’re in it). Tam will be living in my uncles condo by that time and you can stay with her if you like. You can talk to Tam later. Hope to see you soon.
Sanford

So Em, I’m back. When are you going to come see my beautiful little girls and my growing belly? We could come see you to. It’s just a little more challanging with a 1, 2, and 4 year old. I’m assuming you probably don’t have toys for them to play with. Anyway I would love to see you! Just say the word. I’m living with my mom and dad if you didn’t know so give me a call.
