Guess what, everybody? Since our last post, we closed on the house, packed, moved in, and already took a vacation! Whew! (The vacation wasn't planned to fall right in the midst of everything else going on, but that's for another post.) The Bright House guy just left, which means the Brown family, and the Meet the Browns blog, is back online! While I take a little break to catch on my virtual life and catch up our blog readers on our new home, Eric is hustling to do his handiwork around the house. Already in the past few days since we got back from our trip to Chicago, we've already put a big dent in the unpacking chore, degreenified the pool, painted the laundry room, hung cabinets and cabinet hardware in the laundry room, repaired the wheels on the glass patio door, installed the master bedroom fan, and organized almost all the kitchen cabinets! And before we even left on our trip, Eric had unpacked and arranged all of our new bedroom furniture which looks amazing. And now, we're going to veg a bit and watch a movie. I'll add updates--and a post about the Chicago trip--as we go along on our new adventure!! Yay! We're finally here!
