Our first few days seemed to fly by. We already had some of our most valued possessions in a U-haul and our trailer. Mom helped us make the drive from Colorado, so she was here to help us start to set things up. The majority of our furniture and other things were traveling cross country in the back of a semi and wouldn’t arrive for a few more days.

One of the main things that attracted me to this house was the kitchen! I was beyond excited to cook my first meal in our new home. In true Italian fashion… Our first meal in our new home— my famous spaghetti!

We are so thankful Mom was here with us to help. Not only was she an extra set of hands, but a calm and reasoning voice when you’re losing your mind over the stress of moving. But before we knew it, it was time to take her to the airport. With COVID still spreading and no vaccine yet, we didn’t know when we would see her again but hoped it would be soon!
