A New Journey Begins...

After nearly 3 full days of traveling, we finally made it to Las Vegas! Our last day of travel took us through Arizona and on into Nevada - up and over the Hoover Dam - and into North Las Vegas where we did a walk through of the house. And amazingly enough, the house was a bit bigger and a little nicer than we had remembered from our trip about 3 weeks ago.

Since we didn't sign the paperwork (Closing) until 6pm on Monday - we didn't get the keys to the house until Wednesday about 2pm. We've unloaded both the cars and got confirmation the truck with all our goodies will be dropped off Friday between 9am-5pm (nice window eh?)...but at least they haven't lost the trailer!

Last night we bought a trio of stainless steel appliances for the kitchen including a refrigerator, above range microwave and dishwasher. We'll get the refrigerator this upcoming Sunday but won't get the other ones until after the 1st of the year when we get back in town from our Michigan Christmas.

We need to thank Rick and Jen for helping us drive out - it was a HUGE help having a second driver in each car. It made the trip so much easier!

We hope you enjoy our pictures - please feel free to comment and keep us up-to-date with your lives as well.




Welcome to Nevada!








The first thing put in or at the house was a wedding gift. A rock showing when the "Remlings" were established...thanks to Dave and Courtney.

The entry way and formal living room (soon to be the "bar" room). We have a custom tile foyer which is pretty cool.












The living room - a niche just big enough for our TV. Now we have to go shopping for a couch and chair since we sold our other ones.
