Our House

Both Tawnya and Mom have asked to see pictures of our house. So here are some before shots taken by the real estate agent before we bought the place. We will put up some after shots as soon as we get a chance to take some so you can see what it looks like being lived in by us.








Yes, the carpets are brown public library carpet, and the walls are pineapple yellow. We think they learned their lesson after painting the toilet as it is the only room in the house with 3 coats and WOW it is bright! We could almost deal with the yellow walls if it wasn't for the ugly brown carpet.
As for the front garden, it has all been ripped out a redone so we will get up some pictures of it soon too. If you want to see anything in particular let us know and we will get make sure we get a shot whilst we have the camera out.

I love your little house. I only wish we could come see it in person.

Man that's yellow! So cute, though. It's like a real, live Danny Deckchair Australian house.

Yay! All fixed! Nice playlist (I'm gonna need more cowbell...)

Yes, a nice "little" house. Cindy gets confused by this statement, as it is a pretty standard size Australian house, and on a decent size block, (about 620m2). Most houses now days are on 400m2 blocks. Also, we got it pretty cheap at $320,000.... it's our "savings" for moving back over there in a few years, as we should be able to sell it for closer to $400k when we're ready to go.

Yes, it is yellow, but your eyes get used to it after a while, plus we're using dark furniture (blacks and chocolates) and accenting with blues and oranges, and it's working out quite nice. Pics to come when we have time....

Yes, I got it fixed!!! There are two places that you can generate the code to use, and when you told me where you got yours, it was different than the one I used, so I went back and used yours... now it works!! I thought I'd just put up a general cross section... (with our theme song being first, of course! Cindy wants to run the lyrics as the background....)
