Unpacked

yes. we are unpacked! our last move we had one child who napped twice a day and was staying at grandma's while we unpacked. fast forward three years and we are a household of five, two who nap once a day, and one who naps and eats all day long! we pawned Addie and Wyatt off on my parents for 36 hours and hoped for the best. after two weeks, we are officially unpacked and settled. we had most of the stuff unpacked within days, but finally those few annoying boxes that needed to be dealt with are gone! our place isn't that big, so there really wasn't much space to stay in boxes long. our basement days are over, so we couldn't just dump the boxes down there until we felt like looking through them. secretly, i am glad though. we have had a great purging session and I feel so decluttered! i'll hopefully post some pics of the place soon! alas, we have internet too! my favorite things right now about our place...

*my closet! a walk in that has some serious hanging space! i just organized it and it really makes me happy when i walk in my room!
*i can walk to two great parks with the kids!
*we are seriously within walking distance to all of the shops listed in my earlier post!
*Papa works about half a mile away and stops by all the time to kiss the kids goodnight!
*my garage...it only holds my car but that is a huge convenience!
*Dish Network...we have never had any cable service our entire marriage and David called around and found us a great service for way cheaper than we expected! We are totally enjoying it and the DVR rocks my world! Anyone with children who likes even one or two shows should seriously consider!
*church is just a few minutes away and we have such an enjoyable car ride now!
*i ran into a gal from church at the grocery store tonight...sounds pretty lamo, but it totally made me feel like we are starting a little life here in the OC (j/k...i don't really call it that!)
