DH and I recently decided to sell our house and build our dream home. His business is doing well and it's something we've talked about for a couple of years. We bought an acre lot in a great neighborhood last month and have been finalizing a floor plan. Well, today the builder we are using brought the contract by and DH signed it... and the builder said he scheduled his people and they are about a week out from breaking ground!!! We are so excited! We've been working really hard to get our home ready to sell, and will probably put it on the market June 1st. We may be living in an apt for a few months if we can sell it right away... we're hoping we can b/c the market is still really good here in OKC.

Nonetheless, our builder said we should be in our new home by November barring no weather delays!

How very exciting! My inlaws have built a couple of homes for them selves over the years and it is SO fun to watch them take shape! They built three spec houses and it was fun as I gave lots of my opinion on coloring choices etc.

Like I said, it will be so fun to see your ideas/dreams come into shape

Congratulations!

Yay Amber!! That's awesome!

We built our house and moved in last summer. Building is GREAT, but it can be a lot of work! It is so worth it in the end, though, when you have a house that is exactly how you want it!

Can't wait to see pictures!!! And I really hope your house sells really quickly!

Thank you all. I REALLY need this.. .it is helping me keep my mind off of getting pregnant (at least a little bit )... We do have a model home we are basing it off of, which makes it easier b/c we are using most of the same colors, with some exceptions and added extras - including a second master closet (mostly for my shoes!! )..

I will definitely share pics of the progress. I went and took some pics of the land. It will be so neat to see it all go up!!
