We packed up everything and moved on Thursday afternoon. We were headed to Morgan's parent's house to spend the night since they live only about 15 minutes away from us and our escrow was scheduled to close the next day.

On the drive there, we got a call from the builder and they told us that escrow had closed early. We were officially new homeowners! We were told initially that escrow probably wouldn't close until 5:00 p.m. on Friday so this was a pleasant surprise! Since we were exhausted and it was late, we decided to pick-up our keys the next morning. We moved in Friday morning and have been working hard ever since. We have pretty much everything unpacked now. We are not used to having all this space and Morgan and I were saying last night that our legs are wiped out by the end of each day. Our last place was so small that we didn't have far to walk. We are now walking about 6 times more than before! My goodness, no wonder! It'll take some getting used to but we're thankful that we have some time before our girls come home.

The painters are starting today and they will be painting all of the rooms for the rest of the week. It's a good thing we don't have much furniture yet. My parents are coming to visit next weekend so that'll be really nice. We are so thankful to God for this house and for His many blessings. He has watched over us in every detail and we praise Him daily for His faithfulness and grace. We can hardly believe that this is where our next chapter will begin.

The sunrises and sunsets have been beautiful here. The sky seems so vast and big. I'll leave you with a picture of today's sunrise from our sky deck.
