I've been absent from the blog but those of you following on
Instagram will know that we have moved home! As you can imagine, life has been quite hectic so it has been easier to post quick pics. But my new toy is set up now and there's a lot to catch up on!

Our study nook. |
Almost two weeks ago now we had our handover meeting and received the keys to our home! A wave of satisfaction, relief and excitement washed over me as I walked through each room. All of the trials were forgotten and I was thrilled with the finished result. Well, almost finished. We were still waiting on the bathroom bench tops and some lights and the painters needed to complete the exterior. But nothing was going to stop us from moving in now!

We got Mini Movers in to move the contents of the shipping container back into the house and did countless trips in the cars from the rental property. We were very grateful that some lovely friends helped with the move and the grandparents took the children for a sleep over.

The first of many loads. |
I had visions of Hubby and I enjoying our tradition of takeaway and champagne on our first night in the house but we spent the night cleaning the rental property and collapsed into bed at 1am!
I only took a few photos before we filled the house with boxes. I'll share some pics of the completed rooms when they are not so messy!

Welcome home! |

Home Sweet Home! |
Love that last shot, and I think everyone should have a grand piano near the kitchen so that the cook can have live music!! Well done guys and welcome home :-)
ReplyDeleteCheers, Col
Thanks Col. I'll tell Hubby he needs to play me some tunes tonight. :-)
