Sadie the Cleaning Lady, Bob the Builder and the Thanksgiving Princess !

Hey All,

Just a couple of pikkies from the building site.

Here is Sadie the Cleaning Lady making a wonderful job of cleaning our kitchen. It looks fantastic and I wouldn't have done it near as perfect. Ta Mum !!!


And Bob the Builder was in the basement making some great shelves. Thanks Pops !!!


Then we have the Thanksgiving Princess with her litle basket and crown she made at Kindergarten:


And this is the pink wall in Charly's bedroom - we promised her and she didn't forget so it was paytime for Mama and Papa - it's bad but she loves it.


The guest room is nearly finished with just a few goodies to be put in the bathroom. We are just waiting on the heating radiators, the floors to be oiled and two lamps and then we can move in. Yahoo !!

Bye for now - Lara, Mike & Charly xxxooo

Cleaning & Ordering Furniture

Hey People

Seems like we are getting there ! I am cleaning the top floor this weekend and hope to get a bit of the first floor done as well. I have a cleaning lady helping me who is a real dream so it should go pretty good.

We have also been ordering some furniture and here are some pikkies. All pretty funky - have an architect for a boyfriend - but I like it too. The italians are taking their time as usual and it will take at least 6 weeks before things arrive but hey ! I can wait.

Here is the couch (same colour) we have ordered for the chill out area uptairs in front of the TV - it's called Arketipo Box:


with little footrests to match but in a darker shade the same as the couch - Arketipo Cubo:


These are the chairs for the dining table - Panton:


These are for the wine and open fire area - Victoria & Albert:



Mum and Dad are having a good time here. Dad is spending most of the time on the building site doing all sorts of useful jobs whch is a great help to all and he seems to be loving it. Last night he was oiling the ceiling beams and singing away to himself. Much better than the last holiday where he was in hospital.

Hope all of you are well.

Love and kisses - Lara, Mike & Charly xxxooo
