Our Housewarming Party

David and I bought our house on Friday - September 24^th. It took some time, but we were able to move everything from one house to the other. The hardest part was that David was the one on vacation for a month and moving and packing everything himself, while I started a new job on that following Monday, so unfortunately for both of us, I wasn’t able to help as much. Then the end of the month came and crunch time began. We were throwing things in boxes and slapping on white paint on ever wall just trying to get out of that rental house. Then we finally did and we were able to start putting our house together.

We have been doing very well for ourselves. Of course, David’s first project was the projector and surround sound. So now we have a 90 in screen in our living room with a projector that is mounted to the ceiling and surround sound wherever you sit. Then was the garage, he has managed to get everything that we need in that garage, and on top of it, it is organized to his own specification. I can’t find a thing in there, but if you ask him he can tell you exactly where it is. Then came the King Size bed that he picked up from Corpus and that is just fantastic! Oh, and he also put in a fire pit! That man of mine is a keeper! And then my favorite part, is the hot tub. Oh how I love that hot tub! He was able to convince some of our closest friends to come lay the foundation, and then he went to get the hot tub… and then they hooked it up themselves. I wasn’t that happy about the idea of my husband and his buddies playing with 220, but they did it perfectly and that hot tub is a wonderful, wonderful thing that I will enjoy for a while.

So with all of these things in place, what should we do to celebrate! We should have a housewarming party! So last Saturday we invited all of our family and friends over and had two, yes two parties. The first one started at 1 and it was for family to come join. It was very nice and relaxing and just a lot of fun. We had sandwich platters, veggies, fruits, chocolate dipped fruit and this amazing hummus with pita chips and baguettes.

Then everyone left and we relaxed for our night party to start. It started at 8 and ended at 5am. It was so wonderful to have everyone come over and enjoy our home. We had the fire pit going and the deck has never been more packed. We had a bunch of people inside and music going everywhere. There were endless amounts of beer (until it ended) and snacks and food to keep the bellies happy. Then when the party started to wind down, that is when the hot tub started.

It’s funny how it becomes hot tub time. It happens when it happens and all I am allowed to say about the hot tub is that it is a guaranteed great time! It’s so choice, I highly recommend getting one!

So that was our housewarming party, and we will have many parties to come and I will let you know of our next adventures in our fantastically wonderful home.
