The Real Move In

Well, its official, we survived the arrival of all of our things. It has been a looooongggg weekend of unpacking, and we are both exhausted, but we *almost* have it all finished and its really starting to feel like a home in here. We thought it would be funny to take pictures to document the progress of all of the boxes coming in but at some point it became too chaotic to take pictures and the sight was so frightening it wasn't something we wanted to save for posterity.

No more rental furniture. And just like that we were left with an empty apartment.

Before picture of the office- which subsequently took a lot of abuse. 

Dave, impatiently waiting for the Findlay movers to arrive. 

And just like magic- the first boxes (and chairs) arrive!

Elation. Joy. Pure happiness. OUR STUFF IS HERE!

More boxes...

The office- taken over by random boxes and homeless furniture

Whats in this box-whats in this box? Still excited at this point...

Uh oh... lots of boxes...and no time to unpack them.

It used to be an office...

Where are we supposed to put all of this?

Well it sort of looks like our living room...

Overwhelmed.

Bomb shelter.

Office in progress.

Empty boxes are a good sign!

Bomb shelter with shelves!

A very close to finished living room- looks just like 1 Irving- minus the Ocean view.

After hours and hours of work- a use-able kitchen! Had no idea how great all the cabinet space we had at 1 Irving was! Will be looking for MASSIVE kitchen storage in the next apartment!

And now that we have use of our living room and kitchen, we had a home-made American brunch on Sunday morning to celebrate!
