Amy and Steve’s house has begun. The double garage had been formed up and today the venous being poured. We had torrential rain on Saturday and part of the pool collapsed, so it’s been supported with corrugated iron. It’s all happening! Love Chris

Wow, a bunch has been done. They need Mother Nature to cooperation though! Is their lot long and narrow? I can't quite tell. Will their pool be beside their house or behind it? Everyone must be getting excited and frowning when it rains! Hugs to all, Laura

Hi Laura, the pool is at the back of the lot and yes it's a narrow block, that's why it's going to be a 2 storied home. Love Chris

It is all go now. Hooray for Amy & Steve. Rain can be a nuisance when you are doing these sort of jobs. We had a glass petition put on our back veranda before Christmas. We had torrential rain weekend before last and the water came in under the petition. I had to get them to come back and out another bead of sealant on either side. Hope that helps. Hugs

Oh! sorry to read that Shirley, water anywhere inside your house is enough of a problem. I hope it's fixed it too. Love Chris

Is this a total build from the ground up, or a huge add-on? How thrilling it is! How much fun to get all new things for the inside!

Hi Jan, yes, it is. I posted pictures of them demolishing the house in previous posts. Yes, Amy is so looking forward to all new appliances. They are also reusing the over 100 year old wooden floorboards throughout to honour the past. It's going to be really unique. Love Chris
