Thank you as well leebuild Well handover is 7am Saturday morning, so it will be a full day of moving, our spa is getting delivered at 8am! I cant wait to see it because we ordered the colour off a sample and havent seen it in real life yet! A few little things still to get finished off, but they will happen. Its funny, I still keep thinking we are going to get a call saying we cant move in because of...

We stayed at my dad's while the house was being finished, and its just around the corner, so its only a short move as well. I forget where the kettle is, we have bits and pieces everywhere. I think I better do a bit of grocery shopping Friday night as well, we wont have any coffee or ANYTHING at all Maybe I should organise an esky full of nice cold drinks as well!

Things have been hectic! Thank you DamNita, Dreamer and Allanna. Allanna, did you still want those further photos? So in between moving in and now, we have had to take our neighbour to small claims over the fence and him not wanting to pay for it. Lets just say, I would be happy if neither of my future neighbours moved in! Its a shame, but oh well I guess, its the risk you take anywhere isnt it. We have had the turfing and small gardens done. Some of the big palms we bought for the back went into shock but are coming back to life... Cant wait to take some nice photos of those and post here! Its amazing how everyone elses houses come along, some look just fantastic! Re: Some landscaping pics added (14/11/2010) 171Nov 12, 2010 3:10 pm Ok, so thought I would finally add some more photos... Dont have many (got them off my iphone so excuse the quality), I might get a few more on the proper camera if anyone is interested!
