Home Sweet Home

In another 6 months anyway... LOL

This morning we attended our second (and LAST) McMillin release. We have successfully reserved lot 48, we've chosen our floorplan and elevation as well.

The next step is signing the purchase contract which we will do on September 29th. From there we begin the exciting process of choosing colors, flooring, upgrades, etc. We have selected the Dorado floorplan with a Tudor elevation. It's 4 bdrms. 2 1/2 baths - so all the kids will finally have their own bedrooms.

We were up early this morning to be out at the release before 9:30am. It took us until after 11am to finish up and from there we went out to breakfast to celebrate.

Mike's birthday is this week and in normal Doran fashion we are starting off the week-long birthday celebration with a new home purchase! LOL - This way when the expenses begin to mount for upgrades and what-not, I can just say that they are late birthday presents for Mike... ;o)

Kate is off to Leslie's for a birthday slumber party... Ethan and I are home with Maggie while Mike works this weekend to get ahead of the appraisal avalanche so that we can take off for the beach next weekend!
