Plastic Fence & Outline!!!

Finally, we made it back to Waldorf, MD this weekend to visit our lot and boy oh boy what did we find? We had a porter potty on our lot, an outline, a plastic fence :), and all of the lots that sold near the time we purchased were fenced off and some had lumber and foundation so they are about to get busy on in the next few weeks on our street! Also happy to know that by the time we move in most of the houses on our street will be completed with the exception of maybe a few. :)

We also found out who got the lot we originally wanted! It was the largest lot, a corner lot and it was at the end of a street! We saw then parked in front of the house, and guess what they did? They built the smallest house they build in our development on the lot, a belford. It's a beautiful home, but we really had our eye on that lot. :( We were really limited in our lot selection because there were not may lots that would fit the width of our house. But that's okay, I think we still made a good choice! At least now, we have the woods behind us, I think I rather be in a smaller lot, but with trees and privacy. :)

Soooo finally here are some new pics. They have also finished building our neighbors house, who has a house on another corner lot, who has the same style and elevation we chose! Their house turned out beautiful! I am glad we have a totally different color scheme which will make us unique since we went with light grayish brick and black shutters and door and they cant fit but maybe one more Courtland on our street. I like a neighborhood with a mix of different houses and color scheme.:)

the potty...hmm should i feel some kind of way, that thy chose to put this on our lot??? lol j/k



 the tree's finally grew some in the back

Our driveway! :)

This is our street from our lot to the end. Where the trees are is the end. This is the final part of the neighborhood they are building. I can't wait to jog and walk the dog!

Our lot from the very back of our yard to the street.

this orange outline is where our morning room will sit, I believe???


Stakes and in the Back they fenced in the SWM area. They are going to paint it and put a graveled path behind the houses.

Another view of our lot all staked out! :) My plastic fence is beautiful! I mean our plastic fence is beautiful! Ha Ha Ha!

The finished version of our house and elevation. Isn't she a beauty? Hmm I should have saw if the doors were locked and tried to take a peak...Is that against the law since they do not live in the home yet?? Maybe not, I don't want to start off on the wrong foot with our neighbors already. :)

Finally, something NEW: dates & garage info!

Hey guys, things have still been pretty DRY on my side of town! I try to keep pic-less posts short! I emailed my Sales Rep today to get some dates and answers, because I am going crazy wondering when someone anyone will contact us and when things will start happening! lol

Good News: We are scheduled to meet with our PM for our pre-construction meeting on June 1st! :) yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay! That is in exactly 3 weeks! I'm stoked!

Also, our friends who live in the first section they completed in our neighborhood, said they saw bulldozers on our lot! Whooo-hoo! Friday is my hubbys bday and we are going to a food & wine festival nearby, so you know what that means!!!!??? We will most definitely be doing a drive-by!!!!!!! and that equals new pics! :)

Oh yeah, I also asked is there anyway to make the garage larger because I have heard people complain that their garages are tight, and my sales rep said No once again, that is not an option. Oh well, at least I tried. :) Has anyone noticed that it is tight when you have two cars in your garage?

Until next week, happy building and blogging! ;)
