Moving Day!!

Hello everyone, Today we shifted our tiny house to its final location. The new location was only about 1 minute up the road in a great big paddock with some sheep. The move went really well and the Terrano towed it surprisingly well. The next step is to build a nice big deck on the front so we have a nice place for our grill and additional living space.

As soon as we got the tiny house lined up at the gate all the llamas just had to come over. Nosey pricks.

The llamas were very excited to finally see the Tiny House move! They all came over for a visit.

Pat just took off as soon as the coast was clear.

Into the paddock it goes.

It looks so tiny! We feel so much better now that we safely moved it with no issue. Now we can actually start putting things on shelves and organizing our lives. Thanks for reading! Stay tuned for more tiny house action. And also we should address the common question, "So is it done yet?" the answer is no, It will probably always be a work in progress. But for the time being our goal is to get it livable. We need a toilet, water, electrical and gas. Everything is tested, all we need to hook everything up!

Also shout out to all my wellesley girls/badonderz/CFYM and our family and friends, thank you for your interest and excitement, I (cori) had a great time at home and miss everyone already.

LOVE LOVE LOVE to everyone!

It Moves!

Hello everyone, Today at the tiny house we did a bunch of little things including trim, kitchen lighting, vinyl in the cabinets, and some decorating. We also lowered the trailer off the four blocks its been resting on for over 7 months. We hooked the trailer up to our truck to test the lights and towing capabilities. After filling all four tires on the trailer with air we shifted the tiny house with no worries. Success! Watch the drama unfold!

Below is the first long distance photo that we have been able to take without a fence in the way!

Finally got the kitchen lighting up.

I found these in a store in Wellington, three for $12! It took us a while to decide where to put them.

If you look closely you will see the vinyl that we glued to the shelves of the kitchen cabinets. It makes it look so much better!

I am embarrassed to say that this took me a good 30 min to do!
