Cutting down our Christmas tree

I have always wanted to cut down my own Christmas tree so this year Kurt and I went with Kurt's family to cut down our trees. It was fun and we got an awesome tree for only ten bucks! It's a shame that we won't be able to move into our new house and get is set up until right before Christmas.

Our turn

The walls were up and the sheetrock was done. Now it was our turn. Little did we know what we were getting ourselves (and the many people who helped us) into. Calking, puttying, priming wood, priming sheetrock, spraying ceilings, spraying trim, spraying closets, etc. We could not have done it without all the help. THANK YOU!!!

Happy Birthday Kurt

Happy Birthday to the most wonderful husband in the world!

Kurt turned the big 23 on tuesday. We actually spent most of the day at our house getting ready to paint (it's what Kurt wanted to do). Then we went to his parents and ate dinner and cake with the family, watched the finale of Dancing with the Stars, and then Kurt played Madden until after midnight.

Kurt got a camcorder. He is so excited that he won't let anyone else play with it.

More House Pictures

More pictures of our house. It's suppose to be done at the beginning of December so if anyone wants to come visit we will have plenty of room.

Our House

We are super excited about our house. It's like our baby. We go take pictures of it multiple times a week and tell everyone all about it.
