Moving In

Here are a few photos that were from the Realestate.com website from when we bought our little house just so you get a little idea of what it was like when we moved in.

The street view - I fell in love with the house when I saw this picture on Realestate.com


 Our front deck - great for drinks on a nice sunny day.


The back deck - Where Indy lives!


The weird back room that has been a spare room, storage room, study and where we slept when our room was being done up.


The kitchen - still exactly the same.


The original living room.


The wall that I decided had to be knocked out and if we couldn't do it I didnt want the house!


The spare room.


The grose main bathroom


Main bedroom


Original dining room - this dining table is now the table we use on the deck.


The attic which looks a bit like Noah's ark!


The back bathroom which has become the main bathroom due to the other one leaking.


The original owners seemed to love the colour blue! I how ever am not a fan. I have painted over most of the blue around the house and cannot wait until it is all gone!

The Begining

I have decided that I should start a blog of my own. Everyone else is doing it so how hard can it be.

Everyone keeps asking how the renovations are going so I thought this would be as good a place as any to have all the updates and whats been done so far.

We have lived at Sunshine Ave for 2 years and 8 months. In this time we have knocked down a wall and done up the living / dining room (which im ready to re-do), completed 1 half of the attic (Jon boys half), started my end of the attic, pretty much completed the main bedroom (which I would also like to re-do), finished 90% of the spare room and knocked down a wall in the back room. Alot of work has been done to our little house... but there is still alot to do!

Enjoy!
