Default Big Day Tomorrow

In early June of this year, we just finished our design appointment and were walking around our dirt lot trying to envision what our home would look like.

We took the red-eye last night from LAX, arrived at TV about 10am and no longer have to just think about what our home will look like.

It's hard to believe it went from a dirt lot on June 4, to a beautiful home on August 30. We close tomorrow and can't wait to pick up our keys.

It was a fun journey and made a lot easier by all the information we picked up on TOTV. To anyone out there considering to build in TV, get ready for some great times, and don't forget to use this forum to answer a lot of your questions. The people here are very helpful.

Must be so exciting for you! Can't wait until we can go through the same excitement next summer when we build!

It has to be neat to see a vacant lot one time and a house the next! Congrats. We got a pre-owned last month. Got word the flooring store received our order and they are replacing the carpet throughout the house next week. We'll be moving down on the 17th! Welcome "fellow frog"!!
