After a long wait and a large decrease in price, we have eventually sold Randi's lovely flat, which we have rather quickly out grown. It was also getting impossible to transport the children up and down to the 5th floor which is were the flat was!
So after all was planned; movers ordered; everything packed (see below) and a big group of good friends had committed themselves to help us, we were ready for the big day!
On the morning of Saturday the 12th of September we started the long trek from the top floor to the street level of Livjægergade. It is amazing how much STUFF we had stored up on the loft and in our flat!
But "many hands make light work" and a very very big T H A N K - Y O U must go out to all the wonderful people who gave of their time and energy (more energy than time, I think) to help us. We still owe you all a pizza ;-)
All our tuff friends were so effective that the movers couldn't keep up with us so they spent their time packing the truck. Well Done, folks!
The drive to our new and larger flat took all of 10 minutes...we moved just around the corner and down the next street, which is fantastic, as the children's day-care is very close to here and Warrens job is also close by.
Then the move INTO the new flat was a dream...it is on the FIRST floor!! YUUPPEEEE!!
After living in 1½ rooms before the 3 large rooms and large kitchen will give us a lot more freedom and space. The new flat has also got quite high ceilings which gives a feeling of more space, particularly in contrast to some of the low ceilings in the old flat.
Randi's flat was lovely and beautiful but after the birth of Victoria and Hamilton there was just not enough space. Now we move onto bigger better things with a bigger family.
Enjoy the photos which take you from a packed/moved chaos to the first glimpses of a functioning home.
There will be a couple more posts in the "THE MOVE" series, so you can follow in the developments.
