Got a whole new office at the top of the house, have a basement now, a big backyard that is in desperate need of work (eventually), and an ever growing lost of things we need to buy because we never had to worry about them in the past as a renter. Did you know lawn mowers are really expensive, like holy cow.
All that aside though, super excited and happy for my family and I. we still got a lot of unpacking and sorting to do, but I did get a few things set up in the new office:
