Råvit and vanilj is the colours...

..guess directly translated that is rawwhite and vanilla, or white and yellow if you like.

At the moment i am sitting on the balcony having the most amazing view, with calm water and a lovely moon.

Below the balcony we have this view:

The house is being painted, we hired a proffessional painter all he needs is food and wine and he will keep going :)

We have nice company all the way from england here helping us paint or we help him more likely. We are also getting some really nice steps done.

Below i'll show you some of the pictures during the last week, and i must say i think alot has been done in this short time, but i am no expert.

First we have a picture with the first undercoat going on, keep in mind the house has to be painted three times once with undercoat and then two times with the colour of choice.

Then we have a picture of the two painters in full speed

This is how it looks with two three coats and the vanilla around windows and doors, i think it looks lovely.

Below is one of the most important pictures, the last storke of the undercoat is on :)

Not everything can be about work, so we took a break and went fishing, one pike was caught. Cooked the day after.

The work continues and soon you'll see the end resault.....

Which colour do you like?

Time fly when you are fixing problems....

We moved in in march, but just cause you move in it does not mean it is finished. No! There is still things that has to be done. And it is not a nail that is missing or a door that is not closing.

The foundation is not correct, the balconys are not safe, there is whole in the walls for bugs to nest in, all the dorrs are not closing correct.

I could go on but i do not want to bore you with this just now :)

THE DAY came !!!!!! :)

We have got the keys, the house it done. It is a feeling without description. A feeling with no words. What can you say when a house that should have been deliverd november 29th 2008, is deliverd march 6th 2009?

The first night felt a bit strange, i was woken up early, a deer walked by :) saw the sunrise, the view waking up was the sunrise!!
The view through the french balcony , in the master bedroom






It will be more pictures here later this week.

It's looking goooood!!!!

Went out to the house today, wow :)

Big hopes for thursday now. It is amazing what changing builders can do to a project like this. Just seing what they have done to hide the big iron thing under the balcony put a smile on my face, and that has not happend often visiting the house lately.

The tiles look really good on the floor in the conservatory, and that room is one of my favorite rooms in the house. Just imagine a nice morning with your tea and toast, sitting there listening to the birds and watching the wind in the trees, the blue sea.....

As you can see now there is a lot of stuff that needs to be picked up and put away. So the wiev might not be so dreamy just right now :)

We have plans for the garden, but at the moment just plans, have to wait and see what we can do when the snow is gone and the ground is not hard as stone.

One thing is for sure though, my veg garden, potatoes, carrots and all lovely things you can grow.

If coming for dinner, expect a few crooked carrots, and odd shape potatoes :)

It's close now...again. Will it happen on feb 26?

Been out to the house, and it looks alright. The new builders have really done a good job in the short time they have been there.

The conservatory (above) is nearly done, tomorrow they are putting in tiles, we chose a dark grey tile 30*30 cm. It will look really good i think.

We have got a final inspection time. February 26th might be the DAY. If it all goes according to plan, about two weeks from now we will wake up to a totally different view :)
