Home Sweet Home

It's Wednesday evening an I am laying in bed waiting for Alex to get home. She went to church with a friend tonight and then should be home in about an hour. It is absolutely surreal being here. Last night was our first night to sleep in the new house. We worked hard all day and were so tired and ready to go to bed last night. However, I think I was so excited I couldn't sleep. I fell asleep for a few hours but from 12:30 to 3:30 I was wide awake. My mind was racing. I laid here in bed thinking about what I was going to put where. How I would set up the furntiture. How I couldnt' wait to open boxes as so many of my things have been in storage since we moved to Florida. Today was just awesome. I opened so many things from the past, old picture books, framed prints, decrative things I forgot I had. Each box brought a bigger smile to my lips. As I lay here, Richard went to a Mavericks game with Ben. They got tickets last minute and took off for the evening. Richard definately deserves the break and the time away enjoying guy stuff for a few hours. Ben will be our first house guest as he is going to spend the night and then help us put some things together and do some stuff around here tomorrow. I'm going to try to sweet talk him into putting together the ping pong table and putting up the basketball goal. We are having a sleepover this Sunday evening for Alex and her friends and we want to have the "toys" put together to play with......Wow, I am so excited to just lay here and look around my home.
