How exciting, can't believe I missed it!! Can't wait to hear all about it and see some pics once you guys are all settled in. Hope your not too tired, I was buggered after we moved and I didn't have any kids to worry about What an exciting time, well done Bek I'm back Re: Andrew & Jodie's New Home -Handover date!!!:) 524Aug 18, 2010 6:02 pm Thanks guys appreciate it. I am sorry but you will have to wait a little longer for photo's as we dont have internet yet! I am using my mums computer to do this - I hate being away from homeone & missing out on all the action. No computer is not much fun! We did some shopping the other day with no internet & no phonebooks it was a bit of hit & miss finding the shops we were after!!! The house is gorgeous & we love it - the curtains went up on Monday & what a difference they make for privacy but also character as well. I promise some photos but may be another week - telstra told us 5-7 working days for a modem & my god the expense for it blew me away!! Anyway photos soon I promise!!

Does your next door neighbour have curtains? Maybe you can recommend her, everyone needs their own peeping Erin Glad your enjoying the new house Jodes, and cant wait to see your photo update. Hope your little blokes are loving the new house. Dear J.K. Rowling, Your books are entirely unrealistic. I mean, a ginger kid with two friends? Sincerely, Anonymous Re: Andrew & Jodie's New Home -Handover date!!!:) 526Aug 22, 2010 6:56 pm Well I am finally here with some photos & an update! We have had no internet but have it now - thank goodness. You dont know how much you miss it until you dont have it We now are fighting with a very slow computer as our neighbour WBA has seen firsthand. We are going to have to update but for the mean time we are persisting but you wouldnt believe how long it takes to get photos on photobucket! I can hear WBA laughing from here Anyway, we are thrilled with our new home & I have had lots of fun decorating. We are really lucky in that most of our currant furniture has blended in really well & have only had to purchase the rumpus room couch & meals area table & the buffet & hutch. All my pics & country knick knacks fit in beautifully, well I think so !! We have been here almost 2 weeks & everyone has settled in really well. The boys are running around & love the extra space but still manage to get under our feet!!! The cats have been good as well though are still inside until our fences go up! Andrew & I are also all settled in & happy. Driving to work is fantastic 10-15 mins up the road & it will be about 20mins for Andrew when he goes back after holidays. We love that beats the hour one way trip!! We have had a few hiccups along the way as you do with moving in, our fences are still not up due to issues with the house behind. Their site cut was different than their approved plans hence they cut to far into our adjoining land. The fence guys we had quote us a month ago told us that they could put a fence up but because the soil between our houses was just top soil their was nothing to keep it up! Hence we had to go through Delfin & next doors builder & it has taken a month to sort it out. We have a solution & hopefully our fences will be up in a couple of weeks. Be nice to let the kids out to play! We have booked our paver & he will be in to do the driveway,porch & path all the way around the house in a coupld of weeks as well. So it will all happen at once!! Cant wait for those two things it will allow us to use outside alot more & not to mention some privacy!!
