It's official - we're homeowners!
We bought a nifty Craftsman bungalow and the deed was recorded about two hours ago!!! :bounce: We are so excited (and exhausted). Packing up all of your belongings is NOT FUN, but we can't wait to move into this great house with its beautiful yard.

We've been on the 14th floor in a condo for 12 years now. It's been fun living here, but we are burned out on it too. I cannot wait to have more room, and to have a big vegetable and flower garden this summer. I swear, I'm delirious with happiness at this point, but we are SO tired from packing all of our books, records, CDs, etc. We just have way too much stuff.

The movers come for our furniture on Monday - condo rules state we can't use the service elevator on weekends - but we're going to move a lot of our fragile stuff tomorrow and Sunday. :D
