Thanks Cousin Eileen!

We hired a company called Checkmate movers - we found them on Angies list and I swear I'll never move again without them! They were great.

When we arrived at the house, we had a wonderful surprise, Eileen (who works right down the street) had dropped off an adorable welcome present, along with a balloon. It really cheered us up after packing all night, and dealing with all the stress a move brings.



After we finished setting up the furniture and unpacking some boxes, our friend Cathy came over and we decided some Mexican food (and more importantly margaritas) were in order. Eileen recommended a place near us called Taxco, and they have some of the best margaritas I've ever had. Great food too! But this morning, I was definitely hurting...

Moving day coming up...















How does one accumulate so much crap? I've been trying to figure this out, as this is how our basement looks, and we still haven't moved our stuff in from the Condo. Oh, Friday will be fun...

And here we go...



We just bought a 1922 Chicago Bungalow. We'll be sharing our progress along the way, and I figure since we'll be officially moving in this week, we'll have a hell of a lot to share...
