MOVING DAY + Furnished House Tour🚚🏡

Guys, today's moving day. I've been moving for a month. That's a lie. I got the keys on the 25th, but every day. So, and today's the 15th. So, 20 days I have been moving. Some nights I've been there until two in the morning. And also I'm like, why? Like, why is it taking me this long to move? I mean, I have been doing everything just in my car. Sometimes I'm only able to fit one box in my car and then I'll just like shove other things. But I've moved my entire house minus my furniture. So today, I have movers coming to help with that. And we're going to be sleeping there tonight. I'm just excited to finally be in one spot because the amount of back and forth I have done. I've probably been to, oh my gosh, there's a deer. Hold on. Oh, what's up deer? I will miss this. Oh, there it goes. Oh my gosh. Is that a squirrel moment? I can't remember what I was saying. 20 days, it's been a lot. Yeah, lots of back and forth. Some nights I'm there until two in the morning. Did I say that? My kids are with their dad for a couple days this weekend, like extended longer than they normally are. And I just stayed there as late as I could, just getting things done and then like cleaning this house. It's a lot. It's so nice. Like today's the nicest day. Oh, also it's kind of been funny because we've had record breaking hot temperatures this last week. And this is when I've been the most like actively moving there. So I'm like, it's been so miserable. Like I don't recommend moving in July. If I could choose next time, I don't know if July would be the month that I'd want to move in. Anyway, I'm tired. I'm going to need to crack this energy drink open. This is the tripod that you guys are currently on. So cheers to moving. And I'll meet you guys at the house. I had full intentions of showing the whole moving process, but it's a month later. What's the date today? It's August 11th. So it's almost been a full month. We're pretty much done with everything as far as moving goes. So plans changed a little bit. I'm just going to show you guys a full house tour today of what everything looks like as of right now. Of course, we're going to be changing a couple of things, but for the most part, we're moved in. Before we jump into the house tour, I did want to talk about the moving company that I used. This is not sponsored. I was just very, very, very impressed and happy with the moving company that I chose. But I also want to just share the backstory. For anyone who lives in the Northern regions of Utah, I highly recommend using these guys. And let me just read a little bit of the backstory. I'm just going to read this off their website. They're a residential facility that helps former felons, substance abusers, and others get clean, stay clean, and learn how to live successful, productive lives. Our guys might have some wild tattoos, but they will be the hardest working, friendliest, and most careful movers you have ever hired. This is a nonprofit organization. These men are not getting paid. Instead, they live in this facility and they work to live for free at this facility. But it was really cool to hear from these men. They like shared the whole story while they were helping move. I was just really impressed with these guys. I have never seen men move faster in my entire life. Once they had something loaded into the moving van, they were sprinting into my home. And this was, you know, they charged by the hour. Nobody was lollygagging. I didn't see one person sitting around or doing nothing. These guys were working so hard. They were the nicest, kindest men I literally have ever worked with. So I just have a soft spot in my heart for people who are really trying to make a change in their life. And that is what I, I clearly could see that with these men. So if you are looking for someone to help you move, 10 out of 10, recommend these guys. I had to do a voiceover for some of this because my voice sounded like I was shouting in the house tour. So we'll see how this goes. We're starting in the family room. Since this is the first room as you walk into the house, if you're following on Instagram, this won't be a surprise. But if you are not, my YouTube family, I'm sorry for the jump scare because this is not at all how I normally decorate. And you're probably shocked. When we moved here, I decided we were just gonna make this a fun house and go a little crazy. I mean, there's a freaking Star Wars poster on my wall. So we're getting wild over here. All the furniture was from my podcast room. And when I set that up last year, I just remember thinking when I move, this is gonna be my family room furniture. And I stuck to that. So the only thing that's new here is the sofa. I do have everything linked. If you're wanting any links, you can check that in the description. But that brings me to my little moving day situation where this furniture doesn't actually fit. And I talked all about this on a reel. I ended up ordering a different credenza to put here, but I don't love it. So I'm leaving it like this for now. It is sticking out from the bookshelves, but guess what? I just don't care. So I might leave it like this forever. Maybe I'll get a different one. We'll see. I'm just sad because I love the way that this looked all together. So it's staying for now. Moving the piano in here was so sketchy. Let me just say, I felt so bad for the movers. Bless them, they got it in here. But this is my great-grandparents piano. And if you are familiar with North Ogden, Utah, where Walgreens is, that was my great-grandparents house. And fun fact, they were the first home with electricity in our town and everyone came to watch them flip the switch. How cute is that story? But this piano was sitting in that home and now it's in my home and I just love a good nostalgic piece. Oh, I also have to show you this mirror just because it's weird and cute. And of course that's linked below as well. Let's go to the bathroom. And I'm only showing this because I was complaining about the situation with the lack of storage in the first video that I did here. I did end up getting this little drawer set. This amount of storage was really all we needed and it's great. And then we also have underneath, you can see there's some storage for toilet paper. Moving into my two younger kids' room. This looks exactly like it did in the last house. They weren't sure if they wanted the bunk bed. We ended up bringing it and they do like it. So that's probably what's gonna stay here for now. And then my bedroom, pretty much again, the same. Just a tighter squeeze. I did get this little corner vanity off Facebook Marketplace because my bathroom has zero counter space to get ready. So this fits perfect over here. I do have some ideas to change this room a little bit. Like I think I need a new bed because this bed has been through the ringer and it's broken. That's on the list of to do. Get into the basement. This is the area for the kids. I rarely come down here, but this is the furniture, the couch, the TV, the console. All of this was up in the family room in the last house. It does not fit in this house. So it's in the basement. There's lots I need to do here still. Lots of things I need to hang up. But over here in this little corner, here are all my kids' popcorn buckets. You probably did not know these were popcorn buckets. I mean, look at these things. But this is something my kids collect. In our last house, we had them hidden in some cabinets. So they love that they're kind of like out on display here. This is for all you Stranger Things fans. My kids have a love for popcorn. If you can't tell, they probably got that from me. And then we have next to our cute little machine downstairs. Like I said, this is really the kids' area. I don't really come down here. And I love that for them. They have their own little area. Here are my twins' bedrooms. Now, this is the first time they've had their own bedrooms. We have a lot of work to do here. They do have some ideas of what they want to do in their rooms. So we will get to that eventually. Here's the dining room. If you remember me telling you, there really isn't a dining room. This is technically just a walkway. But we made this work. The table is atrocious, so we're keeping this covered for now. But the bench turned out great for this space. And as long as the table is scooched in, then we can still walk through. And then the foreshadowing with this kitchen aid. I mean, what in the world? I posted a DIY on Instagram of me giving my red mixer a makeover. And I painted it this green color. And then I got this wooden bowl. And then who knew my kitchen was going to be the same shade of green with a wood counter? I mean, how crazy is that? Honestly. Here's the kitchen. I know you guys have already seen it. There's not really much difference going on, except for my stuff is here. Well, there's the house tour. I hope you guys enjoyed that. Good news, the holidays are coming. So you know I'm about to get down on some Halloween and some Christmas decor. Oh, and I also wanted to mention before I say goodbye, I'm starting a new series on my channel. If you've been here for a while, maybe this isn't so weird or out of left field. But if you are newer, then it probably seemed a little bit weird. Years ago, I started a series on my channel. It was like a true crime series where I would share stories that were just interesting to me. I'm going to start doing that again. I don't know how often. And I don't know if it's going to really be like true crime. I shared one yesterday. That was just kind of like a rabbit hole that I went down. That was just this random piece of information. If you know me, you know I love a good rabbit hole. So I don't know, like storytelling. I don't know what we're going to be doing, but we're going to be doing something fun. Just because I can only decorate so much in my house. And then it's like, what else do I post the rest of the year? I think with the spooky season coming, maybe I'll share a couple spooky stories. Yeah, that's it for today's video. If you are not subscribed, please do so. But as always, thank you guys so much for watching and I'll see you guys in the next one.
