Holy crap, we're having a house built!!

So what began as this distant dream to all live together post-graduation (my last semester cause I'll be 23) in a cute little apartment grew to a dream to buy a house, which has now grown to the reality that we are having a house BUILT for us. No joke. Down payment for the lot was made today. Basically, Karissa's dad is footing the bill to have it built, then we are paying him rent. Amazing.

I visited the model home (obviously we won't have all the lavish decorations) and HAD to share pictures with you. It's bigger than my parents' house. Out of control is basically what this is.

Great room:

Another angle of the Great Room:

Kitchen (with Karissa pretend cooking):

Master Bedroom (holy crap):

Game room/ Study:

2nd Bathroom:

Bedroom (obviously we won't have little kid stuff):

The Lot (yep, smack dab in the middle of those two houses will be OUR house!!!):


Yep, I'm excited/scared/nervous/ecstatic about it. I can't wait to be a real adult, but bills scare me. This is my reality in August!! AHH!!
