So the earth around us moved last night, find info from last night's Mag 2 shaker here:
There is actually a link where you can submit your experience of the quake, it's pretty cool.
Now on to house updates...
We finally made the big move last week and are into the house, thanks to a couple great mover helpers. It is wonderful to be moved but awuful to be reminded of how much stuff we have. We are deep into the purging process. If you come visit you will be forced to leave with something from the discard pile in Emma's room.
The two houses are but a few feet, around 60, apart. I constructed a "ramp" of sorts to bridge the gap so as to make the move smoother and track less dirt into the new house. The inspector siging off on our final pointed at it and asked, "Temporary?" To which the builder sheepishly responed, "Yes." It worked great for the move. The dollies rolled across without a problem and there were less steps to haul couches and big stuff up and down.
The newly finished floor was protected with several large cardboard boxes broken down flat. The fireplace is doing a marvelous job heating the house, althought we have not figured out the wood storage arrangement yet. The two side cabinets are Ikea. Now to tackle the A/V wiring.
The kitchen flows great and we tested it out yesterday with an impromptu Easter dinner gathering of 16 folks. A bit stressful but all went well and there was even leftover ham.
Here is and entrance view of the powder room downstairs just off the kitchen and passed the now full shelved and stocked pantry.

The boys upstairs "War" room is now fully opperational.
Master bedroom a-la, http://latedalove.blogspot.com/ , thanks Tisha. Now I'm not allowed to touch anything. "AND DON'T USE THOSE PILLOWS, THOSE ARE THROW PILLOWS, YOU DON"T ACUTUALLY USE THEM, THEY'RE FOR DECORATION." (You mean you don't throw them?) I think I have to levitate at all times in my own bedroom.
All for now, Tony
