Movin In


The 50 ft moving truck came to MN Mid-March. It left 90% filled with our goods. It was fitting that the temperature never got above 10 degrees that day. Here's just a sample of the boxes, there were over 250 total.

Here'a a link to the listing if anyone's interested in a house 20 minutes West of downtown Minneapolis: http://matrix.northstarmls.com/Matrix/Public/Email.aspx?ID=4603199777

Click on the Virtual Tour - the realtor really did a good job.

Once the house was listed we loaded up the van and drove to New Jersey, Jackson, that is.


Delivery in New Jersey was much warmer. A month and a half later almost all the boxes are unpacked and rooms arranged. I've even started working on a quilt top, but that's a different blog.
Imagine the dining room table and chairs from the pictures of the MN house in this area. They do look great in the dining room, but we bought them with this space in mind.

This is the sunroom.
Family Room (from my Nest, aka Cave)




Dining Room
Nest

Library, The Nest is through the Door


Stash Room (on the other side of the Library). The last room to get organized.

And, the Stash which was unpacked before the rest of the second floor (Nest, Library and Stash) was set up.

Things are coming along. The quilts and pictures still have to be hung and most of the collectibles placed. And the house in MN has to sell so we can move the rest of the furniture.

Once the quilt show is over we'll probably move another van load of goods, but we're hoping a family falls in love with the MN house like we did 9 years ago.

Till next time...
