Some photos to share

We have lined the shipping container with used cool room panels. It is not an attractive look but it makes a noticible difference to the inside temperature. With a wash it will look better again. The glass door allows a lot of natural light which is great. I feel that choosing and coordinating fabrics works much better in natural light. The shipping containers are at right angles to the house. The kids play area is in direct line of sight which is great.

I have yet to paint the frame for the door and we have some clean up to do around the container. The utilities trench is still open. The inside is also in a stage of reorganisation. Some shelves may be built this weekend. Cross your fingers for me...

The view from the window is down to the dam and across to the recovering bush. It was burnt 2 fires ago. There are still blackened tree trunks but the undergrowth. This time of year the wattles are more yellow each day and the new blossoms arrive.

Merryn's hair is long enough for hair clips/ties. We now have to practise keeping them in! She is showing some real girl traits. Next to Mum and Dad, shoes has been her first word... She loves them and they can be found all over the house as she practises wearing them whether they are hers or not. It has become a little tricky on some days to find a pair.
