We have moved in.....

The moving truck arrived at our new house....those fella's sure know how to move the furniture...it was an amazing day and they were at our rental at 8.30am and we left for Perth by 11 am...
the wrapped every item of furniture in those heavy blanket things ....
and ...our builders were still in residence in the garage ...so of course we had EVERYTHING dumped in the lounge room and scattered through the house...not my way of unpacking my house at all.....so it has taken me longer than i wanted......ggggrrrrrr.....
mind you there were boxes that came out of the storage that had been in there for 14 months...so i sat and reminisced a few times...that wasted a bit of time i didn't have as well.... i used it as my rest time....ha ha ha!!!!
i couldn't believe how blessed we were with the weather...the sun was shining and the temperature was in the high teens....
yes i know i am slack putting up the pics ...but i want you to see it all done...
right now i still don't have a cook-top or range hood ..or my dish washer installed....
the alfresco still needs to be lined and finished...
the painter still has the under eaves, the down pipes and in side the garage as well as the external matrix panels to paint and the renderer still has to finish off the last of the rendering.
i, on the other hand, have just about unpacked every box and found a place for all the items...i still have to hang the pictures and art pieces....but by the end of this week i will be done...so i am going to take some pics for you...
but first i will have to take time out to play with my gorgeous grandson who is spending a couple of days with us...wait till you see how he has grown!!!!
i will post pics of him tomorrow.

  3. Congratulations on the move!!! I've just caught up with the drama... robberies, grantite worktops not fitting.... what a time you have had. The rooms in progress look amazing. I hope you will share photos of the rooms finished?
