Land Settlement & FHOG money!!

Yesterday we became the proud owners of our very own 900m2 block of land! YAY!!! We also got the FHOG cash in the bank! double yay! We had all of our deposit ready to give away but then they decided that they could use the grant $$ instead so now we have MORE cash in the bank!. We were told not to spend anything though as we will need it for later in the build?? (not that we were going to splurge it or anything) Anyway all the paperwork is finalised. I think we will use some of the grant money for a few extras such as an alarm system, upgrade taps to mixers and a little extra for the feature tiles. The rest will go straight onto the mortgage and car loan.
The builder told us once they got the ok to start it would happen very quickly as they are ready & waiting. If i understand correctly we just need to confirm all of our selections (already chosen) and then we could have a slab as early as 1 or 2 weeks from now! YAY so excited
The builder also said he will let us know when they are pouring the slab so that we can come & write our names on it :) I will be sure to start taking piccies once there is anything to see besides dirt :P
 
So tempted to go set up our tent on the block!!! (not sure if this is even legal but i am tempted none the less!)
