Internals continue...

Sorry to bore you with all the photos of the house. It seems that's all we're interested in at the moment, but we are quite excited about it all!

We can't actually get in the place now as it's locked up, but we took a few pics through the windows, of the kitchen, en-suite and garage floor - nice! (how can I get so worked up about a slab of concrete?? I need to get out more!)
Oh - and gorgeous sunRISES for the last few mornings.
Cheers

Playing on the 'dyno' at work

Last week, Aaron, our new techie was playing with NoS.
He fitted Nitrous Oxide to a 'meaned-up' Commodore that added over 100 bhp! Awesome!








It ended up with 432.6 bhp - at the wheels!

My car next!!!!!

Inside before they lock it all up

Just managed to get inside the house before they lock it up, to take these photos. the finish plaster is on the walls, the front door is on as is the garage entry to the hall. No paint yet, but it won't be long???

Charlie bit my finger - again!

Just found this video on youtube. It made me cry... ...with laughter!
Hope you enjoy? Raining and cloudy here today, so as you can see, we're having a "stay inside" day today, apart from taking Cait to basketball and a short trip to the library later!
C ya!
Just click this link to youtube to see the video of Charlie biting Harry's finger!

Almost a 'lock-up'

I told you we were ahead with the house in the last post and that I'd been slacking with the photos, so I've been busy...
They've finally completed the tiling on the roof, but have left some up there for now...
Cait had been playing basketball for the Willetton Tigers, so she's in her sports gear, not an old vest of mine!!!
This is the living area, leading out to the alfresco..

...Looking back from the alfresco doors to the kitchen (left) and dining area...

Cait and Penn at the back door and will be standing on the alfresco when I've laid it!

The back of the house with Phoebe waiting to take us home!

This week, they're going to put the finish coat of plaster on and fit the front door, so they can lock up and start on the internals, so I guess we'll not be able to see much until we get the keys, but I'll try to keep you informed!
Cheers! Jcp

Ceilings in!

BTW, the ceilings and coving are IN!
Next, final plaster coat on walls, then window glass and doors, so they'll lock up!
All internals start then, so difficult to get access to see what's happnin'
No photos I'm afraid - I've been slackin' !!!

Noonie's 'winter' uniform

Noonie had to be her 'winter' uniform this week, so here she is in all her splendour!
As you can see, she 'hates' school! Yeah, RIGHT! lol

Thanks Mom!

New coffee cups to go with the new coffee maker!
Thanks Mom - This is what we spent some of your anniversary money on - I KNOW it's early, but it's for COFFEE!!! V. Important! lol

Roof 'almost' complete now!

It took just two days for the guys to get the tiles up and fixed.
They've actually rendered the out side, around the redish bricks you see here, and the garage posts as well now as this photo was taken last Weds!
They've also put the first coat of plaster on the walls inside. So it's starting to look more like our home than just another house!
We'll keep you posted!
Cheers,
Jcp

The walkabout has come to an end???

Well, Mom & Lor have now left on their jet-plane to return to Blighty after blessing us with a wonderful two week stay. We managed to accomplish SO much and I have only enough room here to show ONE pic from each day, so cannot do their trip justice.
Just enough to say we love you and can't wait for your return next time!!!

This was from Kings Park, where we spent a couple of hours, taking in the clean air and beautiful views
