Settled In

Things are going well here at the Bear house! We have moved now, and are enjoying our bigger place very, very much! Papa Bear was very sore from hauling so many boxes up and down so many stairs, and then having to put in 5 hours at work all in the same day. He is also enjoying the rewards of so much hard work, and is busy turning the unfinished basement space into a home gym. Papa Bear enjoys weight lifting and running, and we've not had space to set up the treadmill and have all they weights out for some time.

Baby bear is enjoying her new room, which funny enough, looks nearly identical to her old room! The novelty that her room is "upstairs" hasn't worn off just yet. She is looking forward to putting up her pictures and things on her walls, and we are looking for a nice curtain rod to hand some drapes. Drapes that are yet to be made, but a little bears birthday is coming up very soon! *wink*

As for me, I am over the moon that the new house has a huge living room, with space enough for all of my book shelves and all of our furniture. It was a little like Christmas around here for a few days, opening up all the boxes that have spent the past 6 months in storage. My favorite feature on the house is the small space that could be called a Family Room. I have completely taken over it and already have sewing things and bit of scrap booking items scattered all around. The room has a large east facing window and is bathed in gorgeous sunlight until nearly noon. All in all we are quite pleased with our new space, and we look forward to hosting many family visits and nacho-fests here in the near future!
