Innerbloom

Well would you believe I wrote my first post in over a year and then I saved it to add some pics from home and then I deleted it. So now I have to start all over again. Argh

So here we are 2016. 

2015 bought our greatest creation Ashton Zayn Kowald. There were many highs and just as many lows, but life just wouldn't be the same without our 'smiling assain, ginger ninja'. 

To end 2014 we installed the concrete bench tops and also added in the splash back. 
The concrete bench tops look great, as soon as they went in they looked like they were always there. It's nice to see our vision fits in with the end result. 
It took four buff men to get these bench tops in place. 

During our down time in 2015 we started planning and designing #phase2 of the 152 renovation. At the moment its backwards and forwards with the building designer but we are hoping to submit for approvals in the next two weeks and are even more hopeful to start digging up with backyard soon. We have tentatively booked in the pool man for May. Bring on Summer 2016/17! 

Over the last few weeks we have started removing the old casement windows and inserting new louver windows. It became apparent that when Ashton could crawl, he would be able to get up onto our bed and fall out the window. Although our car has an inbuilt autopilot to the hospital we really don't need any extra trips to the hospital, so we opted for a safer house.   

As Aaron has progressed in his chosen career it is starting to become clear I am not needed for half as much as in previous years.

So here we go.
