Unpacking! General thoughts!

Well, we've been in our new home 2 full weeks now. The process of moving in and unpacking is actually going relitivaly well I think. We have a sleeper sofa in the office now and the office area is actually looking fairly put together. The Dinning Room is unpacked and the curio cabinet is in place and 90% full. I still have items I want to put inside the curio cabinet but will wait until I have more unpacked. The kitchen remains a work in progress but it does look good overall with most stuff put away. Most of what I've been doing in the kitchen is moving things around and re-organizing because I'm uncertain of where I really want some items located.

We have moved onto the 2nd floor and are expecting my parents to arrive tomorrow. The guest bedroom still needs some work but for the most part it is ready for guests. Our master suite is coming together and items are finding new homes. The closet is huge and it is nice to hang up most of our clothes and free up space in our dresser.

This weekend we purchased an inexpensive patio deck set. It will be nice to be able to grill and enjoy the outdoors while sitting at the patio set. Gabriel is enjoying the fenced backyard.

Later this week we should be getting our new window treatments. We've ordered cellular shades for most of the windows with a few windows having the top down/bottom up style. The back door will have wooden shades. We ordered various colors to mix it up a bit in each room.
