yesterday we said goodbye to our doggie Blue Dot Harley Boy Komae. 
I pretty much grew up with Harley and get choked up when I think about him now..
my sissy wrote an awesome post over at her blog -->> MRANDMRSMAD
and her post pretty much sums it all up. 

R.I.P Harley Boy we miss you a lot!!!!

life in the nest.

we have arrived! This is real life people...and the house of all houses is beginning
to come together. So far...7 of us are here. We have been unpacking, cleaning, organizing all
of our stuff to work together under one roof and it has been a crazy few days. 
 Anneke showed up last night to stay for a few days before she heads out to our school's
High Sierra program. We're sad she wont be with us first semester...but we are already
anticipating when she comes back to live with us :) 
 We've been nailing things to the walls...trying to figure out what goes best where!
Lucky for us..we all have similar styles and tastes in decorations.
 last night Megan, Katelyn, and I made our first dinner at home. Pizza and roasted veggies...
told you i'd be eating well this year!! 
 we're all readers. and are soaking in every second of down time we have before the
craziness of classes being. Katelyn is reading Harry Potter. I'm diving into Unbroken.
haha...this was the other night. When we had just moved a huge couch and were trying
move boxes around to organize the place. I love the ladies!

today we got our cable and internet installed. 
we have a fridge put in.
saturday our washer and dryer come.

P A R T Y.
