Settling in

I can't quite believe how much we have got done in the past few days. We are in the house and a good way through unpacking everything already. The house is everything we hoped it would be and we love the open feel it has, the dogs are enjoying the space too and really loving rolling on Nics brand new carpets ha ha!

The house has had lots done prior to our moving in, new gutters, new roof, furnace repairs and so on. It makes me feel happy as I know we are warm and secure in the house. We do have a lot to do, repainting inside, new patio, new windows, basement conversion and so forth, but over time it will get there and will be quite special by the time we are done I think.

Sometimes its overwhelming thinking about all the improvements that we want to get done, but I have to remind myself that there is no rush, the house is gorgeous as is and we will attack things as and when we can.

It is lovely to have some spare time to sit and blog, with my cup of PG Tips close by. We are off soon to get some items from Home Depot (like Homebase/ B&Q) and also a Costco trip which is always fun!

I will get Ethan to do the official 'house tour' for you all soon, love to you all!
