Last Weekend

Justin and I are trying to get settled in our house. Justin has been unpacking during the week and I am going up each weekend to help. Last weekend, my uncle had a surprise birthday and retirement party for my aunt in Buford. My family came up for this party and they visited Justin and me at our house. While they visited, we played Guitar Hero and everyone did really well except me. I really stink! Mama didn't play.















While we were visiting, we noticed this cute little chipmunk running around outside. We initially thought it was a baby squirrel, but my niece and Mark informed us that we were incorrect. Pete and Annabelle don't like squirrels, so I'm guessing they won't like chipmunks either.

After everyone left, Justin and I noticed this insect in the hallway of the house. We don't know what it is, but Justin says there are a lot more in the crawlspace under the house. Yikes!

Yay!

We closed on the house on Friday and should be moving most of our stuff this weekend. We are glad that is over and look forward to getting settled.

House

Justin and I are in the process of buying a house in Atlanta. If things go as planned, we should close next week.






This is one side of kitchen cabinets. The little orange notes are from when the house was winterized. I think the house may have been on the market during the winter.



This is the view of the living room from the dining room. The walls in the dining room are dark blue/gray. I would like to paint those walls a different color because they are too dark for me.



This picture was taken from the backyard. There is a courtyard before you get to the backyard.



Another backyard/courtyard picture. That room is part of the master bedroom. I call it a sunroom, but it's not really a sunroom. I would like to eventually do some renovations to that part of the house.


The backyard is really shady. I think Pete and Annabelle will enjoy it. They will have plenty of yard to explore.
