Settling in...

OK, it has taken me a week, but finally some photos of us finally moved into the house. I will write more in a few days and add more photos on the weekend - once we have had the new sofas delivered for the family room (on Friday - yaaay!), and unpacked more of the boxes. Shall also post photos of the driveway and paths - too dark to take photos tonight.

First - a photo of happy Kirky on move in day after he ventured down to the reserve and came back with mud up to his eyes.

Kirk and Tess relaxing in the lounge after a tough day of following removalists and burying bones!


Our lovely kitchen. Still some boxes to unpack - but nothing we seem to need! Slowly getting organised here.


The dining area, taken from the kitchen. Complete with lots of boxes and muddy footprints all over the floor...


Our lounge. We are keen to order curtains or blinds for this room soon, so will attempt to pick out fabric this weekend. Still thinking about whether to paint the walls a different colour in here. Can't wait to get pictures on the walls this weekend - I hope.


The guest bedroom - currently home to Molly the cat who is spending most days asleep under the doona.


The study - which is actually the largest of the spare bedrooms. We figured this will get the most use, so may as well be the nicest spare room. We have an old sofabed in there for guest overflow!


Our bedroom - with Molly waiting for bedtime. Note our lovely silver/grey silk curtains. Very happy with the choice, exactly the look I was after - a little shimmer without being too Vegas!


The aftermath of our first spa.... I really do need to learn to limit the bubble bath... Very happy we added the headrests too!

The famous towel rails that we searched the city and internet to find something just right. Thanks to our friends Phil and Greg for putting these up for us (and they thought they were just coming to lunch with their families!)

The powder room, now with toilet roll holder and towel holder. Followed by the main bathroom with double tail rail and new blind.


So that is it for now! More on the weekend...
