Here's our new house ... unfortunately, the furniture is not ours.

We found some old photos.

In moving we found two old rolls of undeveloped film - of Christmas 2006. We were wondering why we didn't have any photos of that particular holiday. It's interesting to note how different the kids look in only a year and a half. You can see more of the photos over to the right.

Our Move

We moved earlier this week from hour house to a 2 bedroom apartment. With just some small hiccups, we closed on our house after a year of being on the market. On Monday the movers came to pack. Four guys spent about six hours packing everything up. Then on Tuesday they arrived early to load everything into the two 20' portable storage units sitting in our driveway. It took another full day. In the end, almost all of our stuff fit. We had to deliver some of it to a neighbor's house and some of it to Gary and Aubre's.

Now, we're settled into our apartment at MTSO. It's nice enough, though small. Emily and Alan didn't want to share a bedroom, so we had to be creative about use of space (see below).

It's amazing how much junk we had - and they moved it all.
