I'll also add photos of the alfresco, garage and laundry when it looks a bit more presentable.

Hello pretty kitty what gootza said what type of grass did you pick?? Everything looks so fantastic you must be so happy!! Re: Building in Fernvale - Pic update! 495Jul 23, 2013 8:40 pm Thanks everyone for your compliments! ![]() ![]() Kitty goes everywhere in (and outside) the house, including places she's not supposed to (such as on the tables and benches). We lost her in the storm drain yesterday, I had a mini heart attack, but I think it's something we have to get used to. ![]() The grass is Empire Zoysia; we chose it for its slow growth and drought and frost resistance. We finished laying the last bits yesterday, so now we just have to make sure we water it every morning, and hopefully within a month it will have established. ![]() I bought some art for the walls today, will post some pics once it's up. We have yet to get our own photos printed for some of the walls, but we have plans of which ones we want up (wedding photos, etc).
