We finally closed on our old house in Minneapolis on Friday morning. It is nice to not own two houses. It just felt like such a long time from when we moved into the new house and closed on the old one. I was very ready to have only the one house. And I don't have to do things in the attic anymore. It's not fun. We did take a look in the new attic here, and it's not nearly as scary. No bats!

There are only a couple things to work on here, but it doesn't NEED to be done like it did at the old house. This stuff we are doing is beacuse we want to, not have to. I feel like we are pretty moved in. We just got a desk and shelf for Chuck's office. Now he doesn't have his computer on a card table. It's nice to have that done. The only things we won't have done by the time people come are wall hangings/artwork because we haven't gotten any yet, curtains/blinds (there are only ones in the bedroom and master bath right now), and I would like to paint the walls at some point. That's about it. I am really feeling like it is coming together. It feels more like home everyday. Actually, it felt like home to me the first day we looked at it. 🙂 I love it here.

We had a few kids come by for Halloween last night. A group of 4 boys were having a competition to see who could be the most polite. 🙂 And one girl was afraid to come up the stairs. She thought something was going to jump out at her. I told her nothing would. Then as soon as she got to the top of the stairs, the fog machine turned on and she jumped out of her skin and about 3 feet back. I had to laugh. It was pretty funny. Then one little boy told us we had spirit! It was a fun night even though only a few kids came by.
