Around the house

Despite the fact that Charlie and I are both working every day (I am in the middle of 2 weeks of the same camp I did in California, but in Phoenix), our house is coming along nicely. His parents are extremely helpful. We certainly could not do it without them!! We would still be moving boxes in at this point, I'm sure.

Last Thursday the 22nd, movers moved all of our boxes from storage over to our house. Thursday and Friday night we unpacked the kitchen, which was such a relief. Then on Saturday, we started unpacking everything else. In the process, we gave away even more boxes to Goodwill (it's much easier than finding a place for everything, after all!).

Then yesterday, we bought a rug for the family room at Target and a mop at Walmart, so I can finally clean the tile. There is alot of tile. Sigh.

Here are a couple of before and afters.

The dining room:



The family room (not as big of a change, but you can see the rug)




And the table in the kitchen:
