Housie stuff

As most of you will know, we did a major renovation to our house almost a year ago - althought the final finishing touches were not done until this past May. We put it on the market and it didn't sell at auction :-( but we had a lot of buyer feedback about what we should do to make it sell, the top two were to 1) have undercover parking and 2) to update the kitchen - we've done both. Well, we've done the kitchen and are now in the process of doing the front carport. We had to get special approval to build right up to our front boundary line so the process has taken a while. The slab was poured and finished yesterday and the building will be done this week - as well as a spanking new front fence to complete the picture. Then it'll sell - it HAS to sell!!!!!

So... progress pix - the excavation happened last Saturday, the turf laid last Monday and then slab yesterday.




The Boy


Here are a couple of recent shots of Hayden - the tiger face was when we went to Australia Zoo on Bindi Irwin's Birthday. They had quite a huge day there and face painting was free.

The other one is of him sitting on our stairs with his favourite bag around his neck. We keep his toy cars and toy small plastic dinosaurs in it and he puts it around his neck and carrys things around - hilarious!

Welcome to myself

Yes - I needed another thing to distract me from my life!! I've been inspired thru the EB girls - many of whom's blogs will be on my links when I work out how to do that.

So... where to begin... brief history lesson I guess.

I'm Priscilla, married to Erin and we have the most amazing gift in the world, a 2.3yo son, Hayden. I'm guessing much of what will follow will be based on him, he's the light of my life!

I'm about to finish my degree, a BA in Communications and International Relations. I work from home in my own business, Graphic Design but I don't call myself a designer. I'm writing a novel, I want to do my honours year next year at Uni and I don't know what I want to be when I grow up!

The rest you'll probably gather as we go along on this journey called life... Stay tuned!
