Home Sweet Home

Friends!

As of Friday we (and the bank) own and live in our new house! Well, the bank doesn't live there. Just us.

On Friday morning we did a final walk through and decided that we do, in fact, still love the house and were still interested in purchasing it.

Purchasing a house is cool. Thumbs up.

So we went to the closing and initialed here and signed there until our fingers were numb. The seller handed over the keys, a garage door opener, and the instructions for the dishwasher and that was it-- we owned our own South Minneapolis home! Logically, we had to celebrate. So we went to Tavern on France in Edina and had these:

Build Your Own Bloody Mary. Outrageously delicious.

If anyone else has something they would like to celebrate-- birthdays, engagements, new jobs, a perfect Halloween costume idea, Tuesday-- we would be happy to celebrate with you over a pair of these Bloody Marys.

OR! You could come to our bar in our basement, "The Wolf & Bicycle":

So far, we serve Nordeast, Coca Cola, and a special cocktail called "Please help us move this/set this up/drive us to Home Depot."

 

We cannot forget to thank everyone who helped us move on Saturday-- it was not an easy task! Between all the stairs at Kate's place, a cold misty rain, and the difficulty of getting furniture up and down the narrow and steep stairs at the new place, we really gave our friends an adventure. We are under strict order to not move again for several years!

 

 



Moving was smooth, we are making progress in the "we have two of these, get rid of it" game, and there are even some rooms that look positively put together.

 

 

Home sweet home.
