Its has been 12 months since we moved in and it seems like so long ago that we were a midst the final tortuous stages of the build.
We have not yet signed off all of the issues from our 90 day service. We are still waiting on one thing...Anyone want to hazard a guess? Its the lowering of the dreaded gas meter, which has been a pain in our proverbial since about half way through the build itself (in excess of 18 months, I'd say). Ill post more about the 90 day service soon. There have also been a few things pop up in the past few weeks that also now need attention and fall within the warranty period.
The house is a work in progress... but from the moment we moved in, it has felt very much like we always have been here; like HOME!
Here are some of the latest pics of the front landscaping. There is still a fence and gate to come and something decorative on the front deck, and a nicer letterbox, but you get the drift.

| Along each side of the driveway are Liriope Muscari with purple flowers.They are hardy little plants so ideal for the driveway. |
 |
| A pretty row of Little Gem Magnolias, Gardenias, Azaleas and Christmas Bushes. |
 |
| Fences have all been painted in the Colorbond match colour "Monument" to match the gutters and pipes. The backyard has also been totally painted, what a massive undertaking that was! |
 |
| A gorgeous Port Wine magnolia in the centre, surrounded by 4 Gardenia Augusta low growing bushes. Cant wait for the scent of the magnolia! |
A big thanks to my Dad for he;ping me with plant selection and taking me to Plantmark Wholesale Nursery (twice) to get the plants on a commercial account he has there!!!!
Hopefully there will be more posts to come soon :)
