Our Farm

My mind is swimming.  We closed on the house Friday afternoon and when we did our walk through it was overwhelming how much work we have ahead of us.

J was super tired since he just flew in from a quick vacation on the east coast with his daddy and I know he was apprehensive as well.  We were determined to sleep in our new house that first night so we packed up what we needed and arrived around 8 pm Friday night.

We slept on mattresses on the ground - unpacked the the couple boxes we had, had a glass of wine and called it a night.

Saturday morning we hit it.  After a wonderful cup of coffee -we tore up the carpet in the front room.  It was OK Berber - but we found wonderful hard wood floors underneath.  I spent most of the day preparing this room since all the big furniture will go here.

We will have to refinish the floors but they are fine for now.  Iz has her bed set up and the washer and dryer are installed.  S cleaned both her and Iz's rooms and they look fantastic!

The plan today is to bring the rest of the stuff from where we have been staying - pick up paint for Sam's room and something for dinner tonight then hit it again.

I had my coffee on the front steps which face East - watching the animals run around in the field across the dirt road - the sun warm on my face.  I have so many yard plans swimming in my head.  Tonight I will try to take a few pictures of where we are with the house and the gardens I will be attacking first.
