Welcome, Georgia-boy! (I was born in Fort Benning). It's an exciting thing (obvious understatement) and good timing -before the price increase.
Just remember, they can do virtually anything, so think through what you want carefully. There are some extremely knowledgable -and helpful- people here, so if you have any questions, ask, and people will answer. If there is anything you don't know and should know, ask... this is a great resource. Make it a point to get ALL the details clear... about what you want. To say that your options are extensive would be quite an understatement. If this is your first custom, I'd recommend REALLY figuring out EXACTLY what would be PERFECT for you... in every way, every last detail... and then figuring out your priorities, so that in the event you can't get everything you want, you get the most important/essential thing(s).
If you haven't already, dig around, and check out what other people have got on the CUSTOM ARCHIVES; you'll see a lot of good ideas, maybe something that'll grab you, maybe somebody has already done something like you want, and can give you feedback to help your decision-making processes.
Best wishes with your project, I look forward to seeing it!
