We are almost there!



We went for the "Walk-thru" today and learnt a whole lot about our new home. For example, during a power outage, we are not supposed to use the basement bathroom, or the sump pump might give us a nasty surprise. We were told where the circuit breakers were, where the pipes led, how to change the air-conditioning filters...etc. It was hard to not be distracted as there was so much "new" stuff to see. Everything looked different without that layer of dust. It also helped that there were no holes in the walls. Here are some of the things that truly made our day!
1. They got the color RIGHT!

The painters changed out the white and what a world of difference it makes.


This is a picture of our house taken from the main gated entrance.

2. We LOVE the hardwood floors that we picked!
(The protective covering has finally come off!)

3. We love the kitchen + bathroom tiles too!

4. We are finally signing the documents tomorrow! The word "finally" comes up a lot. I think we're just glad that it's "finally" happening! That means we'll get the keys next Monday or Tuesday? Moving day is next Sat , two days prior to our one year wedding anniversary and what a journey it has been. =)
Please check back within the next two weeks for more pictures. It will take some time to furnish the house, and most parts will be left unfurnished for a while. We'll add pictures whenever we get new additions.
Have a great weekend!
