We have the keys!!!

Well at last we have the keys to West Park! Never thought we'd actually do it but here we are. We finally got them yesterday (blooming solicitors) but have been so busy ripping the place apart we haven't had time for much else.

Within an hour we had all the flooring up downstairs which made the house feel so much better. Today we've taken out all the carpets, fitted wardrobes, shelves and stripped two rooms ready to paint. The workmen also sorted the heating out (thankfully it worked!), changed all the valves on the radiators and took the fire out. Not bad for one day.

The kids are loving being able to walk home after school with their friends and think it even better when they call to play. Even Aimee likes the house now there is heating and friends! Now to bed ready to do it all again tomorrow.

Now I wonder where you got the tendency to rip things out? That's my girl!
