Lost my post for the 3rd time...ugh! LOL
Well, 3 weeks ago, I married the love of my life! We are so happy I have been offline for a few months while taking my professional exam and wedding planning.
After the wedding, we spent 8 days in Mexico for the honeymoon. Paid for in cash! My parents generously paid for the bulk of our wedding and we cashed flowed any incidentals!
Our friends and family were incredibly generous and we received many household items as gifts. Both my Husband (HUSBAND!) and I came into the marriage with old/mis-matched/threadbare items that we accumulated in college and from GoodWill.
We were given dishes, new pots/pans, lamps, bed linens and many thoughtful gifts - rugs with our monograms, hand made items, etc. These thoughtful gifts are incredibly sentimental to us already
Out of the items that we replaced, we are selling some older items, donating some and keeping things like some old towels as rags.
Thank you notes were mailed a week after we came back from the Honeymoon. I am BIG on thank you cards!
We came out of this with no additional debt. we have the same financial goals although I am definitely the nerd in the relationship when it comes to details. We definitely balance each other out though. It just means, I will probably take over finances once my name change is complete and we finish combining finances.
I have many things I am working on financially and will be saving those for my next post.
I am SO happy to be back!
Back and MARRIED!!!
