10-20-10 All Settled In, Joe's Homecoming

Goodness, if I don’t post tonight I’ll never update this dear ol blog of mine. Well, we are finally in our lovely home. It closed on September 30th, so we got the keys that evening and started painting. If I were rich enough, we woulda just hired people. Painting bites. We’ve spent the past couple weeks moving in, getting unpacked and organized. We love our new ward. I’m so thrilled with all the young families and fun girls that I’ve met. I can already tell that I’m going to really really love it. I’ll post pictures of my lovely abode soon since it’s pretty much decorated. Actually, only the downstairs is decorated. The upstairs is just a blank canvas.

My brother Joe came home a week ago. Best day ever! We were so thrilled to see him after 2 years. He looked great, and Becca and I were jumping up and down like a couple of crazed fans. Easton is Joe’s biggest fan, no doubt about that. He wants to play with him, talk to him on the phone, look at pictures of him. It’s really super sweet. We are so happy to have him back.

Here we all are at the airport.

So happy he is home!!! And so happy you love your new home. Where is it exactly? And so happy you love your new ward. That's important. We're in an older more established ward and it's not my favorite at all. Can't wait to see photos of your new place all decorated.
