One Box at a Time

We have finally made it to the Des Moines area!! After what seems like months of packing, several trips to Norwalk to fill our storage garage, and a two week stay at the Garrett's, we have FINALLY made it to our new home!! Our first step was to move the boxes from the storage room to the spare bedroom. Yes, we have a LOT of stuff. The best part is that a lot of it is new (YAY for wedding gifts!!) Our next step was putting things together. Jordan and his dad were very handy at putting together our new grill. I think it was because they had food on the brain!!
After that, the fun part began!! DECORATING!!! With the help of both Mom's, Kate's sister, and Jordan's Grandma, we had the basics done by the time we went to bed on our second night here!
Dining Room
Kitchen
Spare Bathroom

Our Bedroom
We are still working on getting everything just the way we want it but it is coming along. Today, we put together a new shelf for the living room that has been designated for"Kate's nick-nacks." It was a great project for us and really has made our living room start to look like we are living here.

We are taking the "one box at a time" approach to moving. By the time we move again, we might be unpacked!

  1. LOOOOOOVE the new place! I cannot wait to come and visit. Although, I have NO idea when that will be. Looks awesome, Kate & Jordan. Congrats again on your first real life home as a married couple!
