Big pile of rubbish

This and more was removed from the place. It was pretty much gutted. . The house was in a pretty bad way before we got to work on it. Superficially it might look ok, but there was a little problem with absolutely everything we looked at - well some problems were little and some were big. But it seemed every little thing had something wrong with it. We suspect that the previous owners did alot of the work themselves over the years, because you would think that at least one tradesperson would do a good job - the odds of striking a good contractor have to be better than what these people encountered. Anyway, have a look. I know that our choice of things will not be to everones liking, but this is what we have chosen and this is our base. We wanted to create warmth, so we chose yellow tones for the walls; the kids rooms are blue like they had in Australia, just to keep something the same for them. They have settled in well and like the new place. It has tennis courts behind as well as baseball diamonds and an elementary school, which is where Alex will start pre-school this week. So, this is our house - Welcome.
