We finally got the internet sorted at the Snicket. So hopefully the updates can be a little more regular now, although the internet not being connected is not really the only factor in our neglect of the blog. We are still not unpacked. We still have loads of stuff that has nowhere to 'live' and Ikea are still doing very very very well out of us as we continue to collect more and more 'temporary' storage solutions. But I have finally uploaded to my computer some pics from my baby canon. So here's a little trip back to the beginning of our occupancy.
The day we finally traded in a small fortune for a set of keys and were ecstatically happy about it was a very exciting day indeed. It also happened to fall on a Friday. Friday the 13th. Unlucky for some perhaps, but for us it was a day of celebration and massive achievement.
Oh yes indeedy, we are excited :)
That giant '8' is not staying. It's huge and ugly but also stubbornly fastened so we have a tradesman booked to come and remove it. Desperate times.
This ice bucket was a house warming gift from Mum and Vin when I first moved over to Perth, now it's helping us celebrate our first home.
Love that stained glass.
First time driving in
Welcome home little car.
Champagne long gone (with the help of Sil the estate agent) on to some red. Gosh that kitchen actually looks ok in this pic. I assure you, the bench and cabinets were a disgrace… chipped and rotten and just plain UGH!
Cant stand that awful kite window but its staying for now.
See how I open the window
I did that. With my foot. It felt great.
The calm before the sledge hammer wielding storm.
