We have bricks!!!

So we have bricks!!! Maybe only a couple, but our house has bricks!!! So exciting! Although not much is going to happen over the next couple of weeks with Christmas and New Year, but now bricks are being laid, it seems to make it so much more exciting, even though we STILL haven't exchanged contracts yet. The house is ours, apparently, we've paid the deposit etc, but until a buyer is found for ours, they aren't exchanging. Something like that anyway, even though they've said that they'll still complete by April and we will still be having ours part ex'd.

Slightly closer up, so you can see the sort of layout. I can never imagine all the rooms fitting into something when its that size, can you?! lol

My new home. The first home my husband and I will have purchased together as a married couple and the first time we will have moved in 13 years.

Its going to be a bit of a nightmare (already is by some accounts) but going to record events, thoughts and feelings and best of all, pictures as our new home is built.

First pics:
The concrete base and foundations, that will form our ground floor space (complete with plot sold sign - woop!!)


What will be our back garden wall



What will become our garage and driveway, complete with a gated front.

Now lets hope for a dry-ish Winter, to let the builders get those bricks laid!
