Week 1: A Summary

Sorry if I seem scattered but this is going so fast!! A week ago, we had just signed our purchase agreement, outlining some of our concepts for things we thought we would want in the house. Yesterday, after about a week of intense document collection (thank God for paperless banking!), we met with NVR to discuss financing. We were told then that without a final "approval" more or less, we were approved to start construction, and now our Sales Manager (B) says we could break ground in two weeks! Oh, and we'd be living there before the end of December!!

WHOA!

Despite my need for a slow and steady pace I'm finding myself only a little overwhelmed. Truly, everyone has been super helpful along the way and I really do feel like all my questions are getting answered. The hard part is making decisions RIGHT NOW that Hubs and I have to live with for the rest of our lives.

Now, that's pressure.

Selections meeting is next week and I am terrified! I can recognize style when I see it but haven't ever needed to make the choices about it! How did you guys all get ready for this meeting? Just Google image every house you could? I know that I can say that all the awesome Ryan homebuilding blogs have been so, SO helpful in getting me in the right mindset. But I'm still scared!
