Busy Week

We signed our lease last Saturday and have been busy every since then.  We checked out of our hotel Tuesday and moved in our house that night.  We bought some bad air mattresses, a few blankets and a couple lawn chairs.  We've been really happy to be back in our own place.  Tuesday we went shopping for paint and painting supplies and a rug cleaner.  We came home and started to work.  We've painted all rooms but the hallways, kitchen cupboards and bathrooms.  We cleaned the carpet in the family room.  We finished up most of the painting yesterday with all the trim on the main floor.  We scrubbed the kitchen floor and cleaned the bathrooms.  #1 son wiped down all the cupboards and fridge.  Our things will be here Monday morning.  My manly man will report to work about mid week.

Tomorrow we will start the church search .  We found about 5 listed on the internet that are not too far for us to drive to.  Even though things are less than 20 miles away, it takes forever to drive there because of traffic.  The churches we picked are about 20-30 minute drive from home.

I am posting pictures of our picnic last Sunday on the South Mountain Reservation, a greenspace area.
