Having breakfast in the sun!

Hi all,
Emma and I are currently sitting in our kitchen at the breakfast bar. We are connected wirelessly through some neighbours connection as our fibre optic cable connection is still a couple of days away from being connected.
Emma just cooked scrambled eggs with Worcestershire sauce and Cooba is under our feet as usual waiting for any scraps! As you probably saw from the countdown (which is now removed) we are well and truly settled in to our lovely house in Våland. We still have a few odd jobs and things to do so it will take a little bit of time to get everything perfect. We are going shopping today for a fence for the backyard so Cooba can roam around freely during the day. He is currently living on the fenced in terrace.
Here is a shot of Cooba from last weekend in the green area at the back of the house. As usual he has his teddy with him!

This is me trying to chop out the big stump in our back yard. We need to remove this to put up the fence but we want to get rid of it anyway to make our garden nice and pretty. I will be back at work on this stump again today. I don't want it to stump me (sorry for the bad pun).
This is the breakfast bar where we are currently sitting. The light streams through the big window in the morning. It is a lovely place to have breakfast. The fridge, freezer and microwave are integrated into the cabinets on the far side of the kitchen.

Another pic of the kitchen. Once again integrated dishwasher. Cool!

This is the all important beer fridge down in the cellar. Brother Zac gave me heaps of bottles and the brew kit so it is thanks to him that there are Carlton Draught bottles (albeit with Noggie home brew in them) over here in Norway!

This is a pic of the Kjeller (Cellar). This is where we store heaps of stuff as well as my 3 bikes and emmas 1 bike (and the beer and wine of course).

This is the main bedroom which has a lovely outlook onto the backyard and green areas behind the house.

This is the loungeroom which is really pretty although when we get our new couch it will be heaps prettier and more comfortable and we can put these two couches downstairs.

This is one of the front of the house with our little blue Polo in the shot!
There is also the washing room in the cellar, the study, the 3rd bedroom, the Loft, and the hallways that i haven't put up so there will be plenty of room for visitors from all over the world.
Anyway, we have a list of things we need to buy as long as Emma and Mine arms and legs, and cooba's as well (even his tail!) so we must get moving. Speak soon.¨
Be so good!
