Wow, it’s hard to believe we arrived in Carcassonne and purchased our home 8 weeks ago! The short summary is, we’re making amazing progress on the house and on life in Carcassonne every day. So many wonderful things have happened every day, we’ve met so many special people, and we just love it.
Another part of the summary is, everything here takes twice as long (as we expected), lots of things are challenging (as we expected), and we still just love it.
Here are some fun House Update photos for you.
1- The dilapidated shed is gone!

2- Jeff’s office – what a huge transformation!

Above: What it looks like now. Still A LOT of work to do, but now it’s much more open and less cluttered. With our new carpet that we bought two weeks ago!
