16 days and counting (or thereabouts)

what the heck is wrong with us? over a week?!? are we all regretting no more birthday posts? eh? anyway, i mean, we have a house to talk about for gosh sake!

sooooooo...without further ado....

shelves in linen closet.

we'll start in the bathroom linen closet (obviously...) look at those shelves! all that room!! seriously. seriously, what will we do with ourselves?!

more shelves in the guest bedroom closet (or possibly the office, i can't tell)

the downstairs bathroom (right next to the kitchen) floor!

"powder room" —all tiled up

and then only Labor Day weekend headed out and bought ALL of our appliances. labor day may be officially our second favorite holiday (christmas, of course). we got amazingly sweet deals. really, it was incredible, way more than we EVER thought we'd have in terms of household appliances.

DISHWASHER!!!

look at all that glorious room!!!

a DISHWASHER! ohmygosh, seriously. i don't know how people live without dishwashers. that may be really, really snobby and lazy, but more so, i'm just entirely sick of such a messy kitchen. the truth is, we are lazy. and probably really snobby, too.

oven

an amazing oven. maybe like 3 times bigger than the one we have now

refrigerator!!!

a huge, huge, huge fridge. and look! ice on the door!! we don't even have an ice maker right now!!! and soon we'll have ice on the door!!!

WASHER DRYER!!!

and the washer and dryer of my dreams. of. my. dreams. i will do laundry all the time. anyone have some extra laundry i can do for them? i mean, right now it costs us $2 to do one load of laundry.


allllright, so that was long, huh? but there's more. see, the title of the post means that we move in in about 16 days. s i x t e e n days. sometime around the 5thish. woah. but i can't show you all the rest, have to save some. but soon, don't worry.

Can't believe how fast the house has gone up, three months ago we were up there and just had some grading done to know where the house would be and now thinking of moving in.
So excited for you both, what a Birthday present you will have, a new house all your own.
Love, Grandmother Monroe
