First Night in Our New Home

Yes, after closing we moved everything in 24 hours.  In the middle of the week.  By ourselves.  In the rain.

We had to take the front door off the hinges to get our couch in -- funny enough, it's the only piece of new furniture we own and every time we move, it's the one item that drives us to the brink of a fistfight.

We literally drove to the real estate closing with one car and one borrowed minivan packed full of belongings, and then rented the big uHaul the following morning.

After unpacking a few key items, we laid down to go to sleep around midnight (this is very late for us on a school night).  Then we heard a pack of coyotes (or coywolves) yelping and howling in the distance.  It was eery and comforting all at the same time.

We were home at last.
