We did it!

We did it, we bought a house! Actually we bought a house almost 5 days ago but things have been so ridiculously busy that I have not had time to update. Closing was a breeze, I have never been in a law office but I'd imagine this it was the most laid back law office ever. We were greeted at the door by a dog and the paralegal who walked us through closing was wearing yoga pants and the lawyer was on speaker phone. It took us about 30 minutes and then we were back home to get Charlie and Grandma Ren and off to cleaning we went. Day 1 we ripped down wall paper and cleaned the windows. Day 2 / day 3 we shampooed carpets, filled in wall paper holes, started demoing the bathroom, started cleaning up outside ( they left us with 3' of weeds!) we moved a load of stuff over and did a coat of paint on the living room. Day 4 was fun, we came in to water dripping through our downstairs ceiling from the toilet upstairs so we now have a 3' hole in the ceiling and some pipes that need to be fixed! I finished painting upstairs, trim is all that is left and Eric finished demoing the downstairs bath and painted the vanity so it's ready for flooring and to be installed tonight. Well better get to work, going to run Eric lunch and then over to the house for the Internet to be hooked up and to organize the mess of boxes downstairs!
