We did accomplish the task of moving into our new home this past Friday (which happened to be Jersey's 6th birthday - lucky dog gets a new house for her birthday). With the help of friends and family the moving in process went incredibly quickly and smoothly. We couldn't have asked for better weather as well! We really appreciate everyone's help!
Now...the unpacking part might take awhile!! However, on Saturday my mom and Val W. came over and helped me unpack and put away everything in the kitchen, which was such a huge help to us! Jay got stuck with putting things together that day - which I could tell he thoroughly enjoyed. Just ask him about how much he likes putting together the barstools I bought! ;)
The beagles made it out to the house for the first time on Saturday evening. The first couple hours consisted of them sniffing the place up & down until their little noses just about fell off! Bailey had to have a couple "time-outs" in the kennel to get her settled down but we survived the first night. On Sunday they really started to settle in - until we had to leave them for the first time in the garage while we went to the Timberwolves/Nuggets exhibition game at the Civic Center last night. Overall, they are doing a good job adjusting though which is nice. We were a bit worried about the transition for them and how they would behave!
We will continue to try to get everything put away and then will make plans for a proper housewarming party sometime soon! :)
For now, we feel very happy and blessed to be able to be in our beautiful new home!

Guys--I am exhausted from helping you move. What a whirlwind....it's almost like it never happened.
I hope I will be able to recover.
Tom-
I am sure you are exhausted!! That's alight - you did your part by helping install that lovely hardwood flooring in the bedroom! And it was nice of you to stop out. You & the family will have to stop out soon again - we actually have the majority of our stuff put away (or hidden in the basement!)
