Finally We're Closing!

We are closing on our construction loan this coming week. It has been a long wait....but it is finally happening and we are so excited! We look forward to getting our house construction underway. There is still so much to do---but at least we are going to be able to start. I cannot wait to actually have the house finished and be able to move in. To actually have space and room to move around...I will be absolutely thrilled! It's sort of like having a baby (without the physical pain of labor of course). We've planned, we've prepared and now we have to wait until the house is "born". If things go well we will be in by the end of the year. IF that is the case then we will have worked on the house for approximately 10 months. A little longer then a pregnancy. haha. At least building a house doesn't cause my feet to swell, have lower back pain, or to be in a hormone induced crying jag. Preparing to build does make me hungry though...maybe I'll go get some pickles and ice cream.
