Our first home

So as I explained yesterday tomorrow is potentially a really exciting day as we are starting to look for our new family home. I thought I would take the opportunity to reflect on the past 2 years and how far we have come in our current property as this time 2 years ago we were buying our first home together and boy has it changed. Nearly 3 months without a kitchen or a decent bathroom.... I couldn't even imagine doing that again. 

So first we have the Living Area: 




When we first bought this house we happened to have 10 days overlap from our previous house. During this time we tried to make the house and in particular this room as liveable as possible as it seemed that this would be the easiest space to start with. We knew very early on that we weren't going to stay in this house so we spent as little as we could and made it to a selling standard... nothing like our new home will be. As I'm writing this post I realise that we actually have very little photos of the house completed... so tonights job... 


This is the living room completed: 



Next is the kitchen... did I mention that this didn't get fitted for 3 months. O, don't let it fool you, that oven in the original photo doesn't actually work. There's not even real fittings for it.







The final and very gorgeous kitchen:


There is tables and chairs behind me there also but I didn't think to photograph that end of the kitchen.





So there it is... the two main living areas of the house. These are some of the other rooms...

THE BATHROOM:


OUR BEDROOM: 



ALEX'S BEDROOM: 



SPARE ROOM 1: 




SPARE ROOM 2:



And there it is... our home, well for the next couple of weeks before we start our new journey making our new house a home. EXCITING!!
