Breaking in the New House

On February 17th we closed on our new house. Our stuff was scattered around, some in Uncle P's basement, some in a local storage unit, and all the rest in a storage pod at a long term storage facility.
We transferred almost everything from P's basement on the 17th. The pod was delivered the next day. Our hometeacher helped us empty the local storage unit into a large Uhaul. Then Saturday morning about 12 guys from our new ward came over and emptied both the pod and Uhaul truck into the house. It was a ton of stuff. They had them both emptied in under 2 hours.



Moving in and checking stuff out...

 First meal in the new kitchen (before the table was moved in)


 Shortly after we moved in... L was showing us how to use pots as cups.

Baby L demonstrating how to use the new "parquet" (wood floor) attachment on our vacuum. The house has a central vacuum, but the suction could be better. We will update the vacuum unit some time soon and get some of those floor level kick plates for the kitchen and dining room. 


It's been like Christmas for the kids -- getting back all the toys that have been packed away for the last 6 months.
