Life in our new Rome.

 After closing and shifting was done, I was anxious as to how are my DD(s) were going to adjust in new school with new friends. But thankfully on that  front everything went smoothly. They made quite a few good friends in the neighborhood and in the school.

   We had very few issues for our three weeks inspection.  Small issues (like powder room mirror was loose, kitchen island support was loose, minor imperfections in color.) were taken care of asap.

The only thing that took time (3 weeks.) was Trinity security alarm. Because of faulty wiring, alarm wasn't working. It took several phone calls to Trinity before they fixed that.. But they had provided a temporary alarm in the basement till then.

There was a noticeable dent on cooking range. PM ordered that part and changed it at the time of three week inspection.
  
Other than that we are thoroughly enjoying our new house. And look who showed up in our backyard  on a sunny hot day !
Eastern Box turtle.



So far we have enough furniture that's necessary. Five, out of eight ceiling fans are up and running. We have installed pendant lights over the kitchen island.  And now here comes few snaps.

  4. This looks great! I'm glad to see the box turtle! They just downgraded it from Endangered to Vulnerable. It is still a Threatened species though...so it's nice to see it having a good time in your back yard. :)

  5. What a wonderful and spacious home! The photos are definitely impressive. I particularly love those ceiling fans. I don’t know why, but there’s something about ceiling fans that impresses me. Perhaps it’s their indescribable aesthetic appeal! :]
