living the dream

I have always dreamt and wanted to live in the countryside. and here we are. living it. best of all, i get paid to live here.

its what we wanted and more.




A...for awesome.



the view from the sitting room..



the holes in the grass are caused by the rabbits who dug out the seeds for the grass to grow.
adrian was annoyed while i found it funny.



Adrian looks like he is bigger than the house..thats perspective for you,lol



the castle on the hill



our little gingerbread cottage from the bottom of the garden



surveying the land



the neighbour's semi detached properties





just came from work so excuse the extra-haggard face;-)



i told him to suck his guts in,hahaha;-)such a trooper,my husband;-)




a little bit wild still..but we like it like that;-)



such a big plot for a tiny cottage..;-)



"excuse me, while i get back to work--look"
