The home closed on Friday, the 10th. Friday night while Brad referreed, Tanner, Kaylee and I started the move-in with the most important part, setting up the Christmas tree:



Well, the tree was fine in our little apartment, but it sure is small here:

The "reindeer" at our back fence. This is so exciting to us:

Xander was so happy to be with cousins and to have lots of room to run around:







Jason brought his barbecue and steaks and fed us all:

Emily fed us a lot:

Everyone wanted to watch Ruthanne play a game on her phone:

And then it really snowed...and snowed...and snowed! 8 1/2 inches in one day.
