Our new house: The "before" shots (Part I)

As I write, my entire body is aching. We've been up at our 
new house (!!!) all day pulling down curtains, ripping up carpet and painting since 9am and we only just got home. 
It's 8.27pm. I just had to show you the "before" shots I 
took as soon as we walked in:

(above) The front room will be the dining room, 

kitchen in the middle, living room out the back.

(above and below) The front deck, which we vowed to rip 

down initially (Mr Tonic, the architect, says it "destroys the 

modernist facade"), but it's a really great sunny spot 

(Mmmm coffee and papers on a Sunday morning...)

 (above) Front/dining room

(above) Living room

(above and below) The kitchen is old and scary, 
but has plenty of storage...

(above) Out the back garden - love this 
part/angle of the house

(above) Audrey promptly found her spot in the sun 

and settled down beautifully.

PS And the best part? We get to do it  

allll again tomorrow. Yikes.
