We did it!

We signed the contract to begin the construction of our new home.  Everything is ready to go at the bank, also.  The appraisal came in way above what we needed, and the banker says everything should be ready to go in a few days.  The basement contractor wants to stake out the basement footprint to make sure it's where we want it.  I can't believe it's really happening - we started this process over 6 months ago!
