Ducks Patch

This year Christmas was at home in the new house with Family and friends. We got to Skype Davin, family in New Zealand and in Perth. But it was a time of doing very little except for preparing Christmas dinner and eating to much. We had some friends that need a home for Christmas. We were casually Dressed. Playing Games with he Australian Version of Monopoly Stephan had the chance to slice the Turkey And we all got involved in Christmas dinner fun.

Well I finally found a map that had the house on it.

We finally did the induction on the clubhouse  so we now use it. the clubhouse is a feature of the Alamanda Estate. It has a big car park but is only 10 minutes walk from the house In front of it, it has a large wildlife pond. It has a nice Cafe that also servers dinner in weekend. Within the clubhouse is a Gym, Pool, large function room, Tennis courts.

The house inside is finished, now we need to get onto the front garden, the design has been approved, now I just need the time and money to do it. First the Tank we put in. To match the house and water the garden.  The Big Doors are still an issue and the need aligning, but it's beautiful when they are open. of course Lissa in still sorting out her room. Each of the kids have a bedroom each. Stephan Room is not much different… The open bathroom has been something to get use to but the kids are now finding it easy to use. The Library is started and has some shelves but needs a lot more. It also has the first of the rugs on the dark brown carpet. While the big red rug is on the tiles in the family area. The ensuite bowls are really looking good as well.

Yes, the day has arrived and the we moved, on the 4th of December we finally got to move to the new house. And moving day started early. We hired a Budget truck, I have a truck license so that was easy. We had all the family, missionaries and friends loading the truck, and just as many at the other end. The result was nothing broken and no backs giving out.  Living in the heart of the city is something already being missed and it only been a short time away. It has taken 3 years we now have a home in Australia.
