WHOA!

Does it really say 9 days on our countdown clock?! Is it really almost here?! I can't believe it! A week from Friday!

Planning on going to the house Thursday (or tomorrow, depending on time!) to check it out. Should be basically done! Our neighbors across our shared driveway close today and the neighbors we met to the right of us close Friday. So far everyone we have met has kids our kids' ages and everyone is eager to meet and make friends. We are so excited, it seems like the perfect place to be for our family!

Hopefully I will have some updated pictures soon! Happy continued building and happy closing to those almost there!

  1. My husband and I just started the process. We signed our contract a few weeks ago. I am so envious that you are so close to your closing date! It seems so far away for us !

  2. I just started following your site and wanted to say thanks for blogging! These blogs are such a great resource for questions, tips, and ideas throughout the building process.

    Congrats on almost being at the finish line and having your keys in hand. We're also anxious to eventually meet our neighbors and see how many kids are in the neighborhood. Although our SR can't disclose certain information, he recommended stopping by at 8am on a weekday morning or 4pm on a weekday afternoon to see how many get dropped off by the bus.

    1. So glad we can share info with others in this fun but stressful process! It is soo amazing to meet the neighbors! Makes everything more real. Our SR said the same thing: the entire elementary school gets out at our neighborhood! Good luck! Looking forward to seeing the progress!

    1. LOL!! That should be a happier poem (unless it's delayed, which it better not be!)!

  6. Single digits - time really flew (at least for those of us following your progress; I don't know how it was for you being the builders :). I hope you breeze through closing and are soon enjoying your new house.
