Home Sweet NEW Home!!

Dah lama nak update tapi tak sempat.... but almost 2 months ago, we moved into our new home (sold off the old one). Sedih la jugak nak jual rumah lama but for the benefits of the kids - the new one, insyaAllah, has more space.

Saje nak tengok perubahan from "before" to "after" for keepsake, so here goes:
BEFORE
On the outside - and the THEN breakfast terrace.
Living hall from entrance & from the front
breakfast terrace from the inside; entrance door
Dry kitchen & wet kitchen
Living hall (upstairs) to Room 2 & 3; Inside Room 2 (girls' room)
Inside Room 3 (Haikal's room)
The stairway from upstairs; the high-walled family area upstairs

DURING RENOVATION
Outside...; the wall to dry kitchen is whacked down to make a bar
Breakfast terrace pulled down; the back end is extended
Inside the living room - for the plaster ceiling; and inside the dry kitchen
We build a new brick wall for the back entry; the new extended terrace & the extended back area

The washing area; terrace still work-in-progress & drainage system

Dry kitchen in the making: the shoe cabinets & for warm clothings, etc
The new divider between TV area & dining; tiles for wet kitchen replaced; the newly painted stairway
TV area for kids upstairs; the upgraded floor outside - leading to terrace
Haikal's new built-in canbinets & room in almost matching blue
