Tuesday, June 29th: I rushed up to north jersey to close on our house. We then caravanned down route 9 (not very fun) to our new house. We unloaded one truck and went back to apartment for another load. At this point after unload that truck it was midnight and far past my bedtime. I went to bed (passing out to a point where I had an intelligible conversation with Brian) and Brian, Shiv, my mom and brandon continued to move. Jamie and Matt were apparently part of this mas exodus too, although I only know this from stories as I was snoozing in preparation for work the following day.
Wednesday, June 30th: I got up at 6 am to go to work. Stayed until 2:30 against my will. The boys and my mom oraganized, cleaned and preped the downstairs walls for painting. I came home and we went to home depot to pick our paint colors, ceiling paints, primers and various other supplies...one of many many trips.
Thursday, July 1st: I worked all morning and then came home for more trips to home depot for more paint...The painting continues.
Friday, July2nd - 5th: Never ending projects everyone is forced to do via me. Some highlights....painting of walls, furniture and ceiling fan, cutting down trees, mowing the lawn, unpacking the wedding gifts, organizing the stuff into respective rooms. There were many many projects, but this is just a few to name. I want to do a before and after at some point, but in order to do this I need the before photos from my hubby.
Tuesday, July 6th: Back to work for Mora and Brian while Annie (and Brandon too) are busy busy painting molding, cleaning windows and being poor slave guests.

So a few photos of what was done, but more to come when things are completed.
