BEEN BUSY

Sorry I haven't posted in a few! Anyone who has moved, knows the million and one things that have to be done! I am pretty much done with the main floor of the house. I am pretty much satified with the touches of decore I have made here. The downstairs is not even close though lol, but that will be done soon, along with the office being organized.
The most important really was getting the clients rooms sorted out. We also got a new client already! So that makes 3 living here. I have room for one more, to share with our blind/mute client...so it will be a client with high needs like him. Our new one is a nice gentleman, with downs syndrome..seems to fit in very well here.

As for the rest, well, we have also been trying to get out with the kids, as Chris was on holidays. He returns tomorrow WHAAA! We had some really fun days though...I put a bunch of new pics in flickr if interested, just double click on any pic I post on here to go see them.
My fav is this vintage type pic we had taken at Montreals amusement parc, called LA RONDE... I surprised everyone, by getting on ALL the rides! Yes I can still do it lol...had a blast!





Old Montreal above...La Ronde below...We loaded Chris with all the prizes won lol!



I am hoping to have my house warming party this coming Sat...so I better have most of whats left, done! Once I am satified, I will take indoor photos...we have family that have been very patient waiting to see lol...especially Chris' parents in france who don't have a computer..so I will have to send them pics via snail mail.

Hugs to all, more to come soon, I promise!

A FEW PICS

Finally a photo with the sun shining! I love the entrance and the gorgous landscaping. I am just starting to get an idea of the perenials here! I have alot of weeding to get to also! lol...For right now though, we are still unpacking!

The day we moved in, we stepped out onto the deck in the back, and had the gift of a rainbow! That's a good sign in my book! LOL

It has been raining alot here but thankfully yesterday was a nice window of time with hot weather, for Chris and his kids to enjoy the pool, although overcast it was humid ..so they really enjoyed it!


So there are a few pics, more in flickr...We are just so thrilled to be here and settling into our new house. We went back to the old house this weekend for the last few things left behind and I washed all the cupboards and floors to leave it spic & span ..I know I sure appreciated this house being clean when I arrived..Although I wiped down all my kitchen shelves and doors here a day before moving stuff in, I was amazed at how clean it was left...unlike some places I have moved in the past...OY VEY!.....So we closed the door for the last time, on the old house...it was a great house that served me well at the time I bought it, during a turning point in my life..when I left one life to start a new one. Not an easy task but one I will always be greatful for as my forethought to do the most difficult thing was the right decision...My life today attests to that.
This new house is totally due to the joint efforts of Chris and I together...Our first home chosen together. We hope to live here many many yrs!
So for now, back to unpacking lol...more pics to come ...

WE GOT THE KEYS TO OUR NEW HOUSE TODAY!

Today was a super day for Chris and I ! We closed on our new house! OUR DREAM HOUSE! It was wonderful unlocking the front door for the first time.
This post wont be long but I was told lastnight by my dear friend Anna, that she better see me twirling in my new kitchen! Well here it is Anna....I hate seeing myself on video but I promised so I hope you are happy! LOL..




This weekend we will bring as much stuff to the house as we can. I was able to wash all the inside and outside of my kitchen cupboards tonight. So by Tuesday, when the moving co. comes to move our big stuff, most everything else will already be in the new house! I can't wait! So hopefully lot's of photos will be taken soon!

Thanks to all for such lovely comments of encouragement!
