We're not in New York anymore Todo!

We moved down to North Carolina on February 28th. Early in the morning we packed everyone and everything into our Honda Odyssey with the U-haul on the back and started down the road. 2 Adults, 3 kids, 1 4 week old infant, 2 dogs and 500 miles to go. What were we thinking? It took us around 13 hours to reach Raliegh, with stops for food, gas and the bathroom. But we made it. After closing on the house, we pulled up to our house in Wake Forest for the first time as owners. It was exciting and the kids loved the treehouse in the back. Our joy was tempered by the bad news that there were troubles with the moving truck and it would be a few days before we would get our things. What a headache! The kids slept in sleeping bags on the floor and we slept on air mattresses. We ate off of paper plates and had to buy ice to put in a cooler so that we could have a few food items in the house since the refridgerators were on the moving truck. The truck finally came on Friday and then the real fun began. Boxes, boxes everywhere and you can never find what you are looking for. I will post before and after pictures of the rooms as we paint and set everything up in the house. For now we are settling down and have foudna church that we like. It is Hope Lutheran Church in Wake Forest. It is bigger that what we are used to but the people are very friendly and nice and have welcomed us with open arms.
