I've always dreamed of  HGTV-kind of moving- in moments, when the inspector gives us the keys to the house and we enter the front door with huge anticipation and excitement...:) Well, things do not normally work this way in real life :) Our move-in moment is more like move-in moments, meaning that we are moving in "step-by-step".
1. step was finishing Reni's bedroom, so she was the lucky one to occupy her bedroom first:)
2. Noemi's bedroom followed about half a year later.
3. One of the bathrooms is (almost) fully functional, except for hot water (turning on gas is only allowed after full occupancy), but at least we don't have to line up in front of our tiny bathroom in the motorhome :)
4. After flooring was done throughout the house, we could finally put our bed in the master bedroom, so we have some elbow room, too! Yay!
5. Progress has been made in the kitchen, too. Granite countertop is in, oven is in, so I can actually cook! :)

We've been through ups and downs, but the fact that we are making progress is encouraging. So we just keep going, and I do hope and pray that we'll be celebrating our first Christmas in the house this year! :)


Mindig amolyan HGTV-féle beköltözésről álmodtam, amikor az épitkezési ellenőr (? fogalmam sincs, hogy mondják ezt magyarul :) a kezünkbe adja a ház kulcsait, mi pedig roppant izgatottan belépünk az ajtón. Nos, a dolgok a valóságban általában nem igy történnek :) A mi beköltözésünknek nincs ilyen pillanata, hanem inkább pillanatOK voltak-vannak :) Egy nagy pillanat helyett több apró:)

1. Az első lépés az volt, amikor Reni beköltözött a szobájába, ő volt az első szerencsés!
2. Második lépésként Noémi követte kb. fél évvel később.
3. Az egyik fürdőszoba gyakorlatilag teljesen fukcionál, kivéve, hogy nincs meleg viz, ugyanis a gáz szolgáltatás csak a hivatalos lakásátadás után indulhat el. (biztonsági előirás) De legalább nem kell sorban állnunk a lakókocsi ici-pici fürdője előtt :)
4. Miután a padlóburkolás megtörtént az egész házban, végre betehettük az ágyunkat a hálószobába, szóval most már kicsit szellősebben vagyunk:)
5. A konyhában is haladunk. Gránit munkalapok a helyükön, sütő működik, igy már használni is tudom.

Sok hullámvölgyön vagyunk túl, de a tény, hogy haladunk, bátoritó. Igy aztán megyünk tovább, és azt reméljük, hogy az első "igazi" Karácsonyunkat végre a házban fogjuk tölteni idén:)

Hello everyone! Üdv mindenkinek!

Making progress

So we met this contractor last Saturday, but before that we had a fun adventure. As we were dropping off Easter Service invitation fliers of our church at the neighborhood, we came across a nice house with a few features that we plan to have. So Wayne rang and a lady answered the door. It turned out that they were Christians too. We made a compliment about their nice house, adding that we were planning to remodel our house too and we liked the features of theirs. The lady was like, oh my husband is a contractor and actually he's done all the work on our house. They even invited us in and showed us around...the icing on the cake was that it turned out that the husband was Croatian (I could tell he had some European accent:) and after I mentioned that we were from Hungary, he said 'oh, then we're neighbors' . I like these little “adventures” or coincidences, I know there are no coincidences though. Anyway, back to our meeting with the contractor. I can tell that it wa...

The big day:) / A nagy nap :)

Yes, the big day is here: we started the demolition on Monday, June 7th! The previous night was crazy, we had to clean out the whole house...Even though I had started it quite a few days earlier, still there was a lot in there. Clothes in the closets, kitchen utensils, lots of canned food in the pantry (I wonder why on earth we have to keep so much stuff in the pantry) folders in the file cabinet, toys,  you name it...Travis came over to help take out the big pieces, like the stove, TV, refrigerator etc. We were up till midnight, so exhausted by then that could hardly move :) We just pulled out everything, put them in boxes, not caring any more about sorting things...Now most of them are in boxes all around - in the shed, in the pool (this is our new storage place, it had been drained,of course:-) I'm sure it'll take days till we can find everything we need :) After the long, tiring day, we fell asleep really quickly in the motor home :) Monday morning came fast, the demo guys...
