Well, this is what it looked like the night before we moved in, nice little deck, (cute husband!), spacious livingroom, dining and kitchen, 2 bedrooms and 2 baths.
Then Chris started in the kitchen lining the shelves.
And Taryn and Jeanne (in cap - beat cancer - waiting on hair!) tackled the linen closet and bath cabinets
The next morning after 4 hours, a big truck, good friends and 15 stairs MANY times - the spacious living room looked like this. This is only a portion of the "100 boxes" - the rest are in the bedrooms and behind the camera in the dining room! Oh my, what if we couldn't fit it all in?
A few short hours later we have a real living room, dining room a large & pretty master bedroom and a guest room that still needs work! It's not huge, but it feels friendly and will be very much home for the two of us for a couple of years!
Husband was wonderful that day - he was in charge of all the moving, then he took charge of making the living room liveable! There may have been an ulterior motive - See that blue pillow on the couch? At the end of the day - about 5 minutes before I took the picture, he was fast asleep on it! HA!!
After spending 6 weeks with friends while we were between houses, it almost feels funny to be just the 2 of us again! We had a great time with the friends, and their hospitality was generous and totally enjoyable!! But we are are enjoying getting everything in order and back to the routines we enjoy!

Oh, I love it, I love it!! That dining room buffet will look terrific in your new house over here. It's so pretty! What a cozy looking apartment.
Please tell Chris she looks fabulous! That's the first I've seen her in the last couple years.
I am not sure I am bringing that one with me - however, it might be pretty in the little - - I hate to call it a den - - parlor - that fits better! It would be a pretty thing to display some pottery and hide a book or 2!
Chris does look wonderful - I was shopping with her a couple of weeks ago and she bought size 10 pants that are not tight!!
Oh, please don't get rid of it before you move here.
