Christmas and Crown Molding

It is hard to believe that Christmas is already over! We had a really great Christmas and were blessed to be able to spend it with all of our family, as we have been every year. It was weird not having our own house to decorate and our own tree, but none of that really matters anyway. I do have to say that I am looking forward to decorating in our new house for the first time next year! ...and even MORE so I am looking forward to spending next Christmas with our sweet baby boy. It's crazy to think that we will be Mr. and Mrs. Claus next year ! I can't wait. Here are some pictures from our last Christmas without a baby:

Over the weekend, Ryan, Bryan, and Rog worked on putting up crown molding in the bedrooms. It seemed like it took forever but there was a lot of measuring and cutting involved. It looks so good and makes SUCH a difference! They still have some more to do this weekend. The plan is to move most of the boxes out of the garage and into the house, too. We'll see how that goes. Here are a few pictures...

On Monday night we went to Haynes and picked out a bedroom set, a couch, loveseat and recliner for our den, and a desk! It is all on it's way and will come in two deliveries. The first will be next Friday, and the second should be the week after that. We are thinking that we will probably start living there sometime before then but I will be happy to get the furniture there and really get settled in.

Now it's time to relax for a bit before going to bed. We both have off tomorrow, so we are getting up and heading over to the house to do anything we can to make progress towards moving in! Nighty night! :)
