FINALLY!

The house did not record with the clerk-recorder on Tuesday like it was supposed to (big surprise...) but it recorded on Wednesday which happened to also be my birthday. It really didn't matter to us that it didn't record on Tuesday anyway because my dad didn't finish painting until Tuesday, so when it was finally legal to actually move in, the painting was completely finished. It looks awesome! We haven't had a chance to take pictures yet but as soon as we are all moved in, I will post some.

We will be moving in over the next few days and will probably be pretty settled in by the end of this weekend. I'm back at work today and will be taking the train to work starting on Monday.

We have already run into our first set of problems as homeowners, but I guess that's pretty normal. The water heater has been giving me problems and we have yet to take a hot shower at the new house. GE is sending out parts today and hopefully we'll be able to enjoy hot water tonight. Since taking a shower is colder than the pool, Kelly and I jumped in the pool (for the first time ever) yesterday evening and it was quite refreshing.

It's an interesting feeling to be an actual homeowner. We love it so far.

Congrats you guys! I am so excited for you. And happy birthday Davy. Sorry I didn't call. That was my first day of my internship and I was at EY stuff all day long. But I was thinking about you. I hope you had a good one and have fun in the new home. We can't wait to come and see it!
