It's been far too long since I've updated this blog, things have been very busy in our little family life! End of term was hectic at school with assessments, reports, prizegiving and general end of year stuff. But the biggest thing is that we moved house 5 days before Christmas. We were half-heartedly looking for a house in Auckland to buy, and came across one that seemed just right for us. We saw it on the internet, Scott visited it the next day and that afternoon we made an offer! That offer was accepted (private sale) and we signed the papers a couple of days later. A week after that, it went unconditional, and we moved in 2 weeks later! So it's been whirlwind but totally a God thing as everything just happened so smoothly.
Our new house has a nice big backyard for Harry to play in, and is close to where I grew up in East Auckland. It's close to schools, and has lots of room. Upstairs is 3 bedrooms, lounge, kitchen/dining/laundry, bathroom and separate toilet. At the moment our friend Elmo is still flatting with us until he gets married in March. Downstairs there's a semi self-contained granny flat, with 2 bedrooms (one is more kinda a study/storage room) plus one big area that is the lounge/kitchen/dining. Our friends Greg and Katie are renting downstairs. There's also a single garage, which is great for all the boxes yet to be sorted (we can fit our car in there though, yay). The rest of the house is looking pretty good though, especially considered we only moved in a week ago and went away for a couple of days in the middle of that!
I'll post some photos soon...
