I came across a fabulous blog today called Thrifty Little Blog. It is about a girl who bought a house and is trying to fix it up. This comes at a great time since just last night Peter and I started talking about saving money to buy a house. The author of the blog has some great insight into the world of buying a house as well as some quick tricks to save money. If any of these things interest you then it is definitely worth reading. Soon we’ll share our money saving plans to ensure that we can afford a down payment on our first house!

In the past year Peter and I have had our fair share of BIG steps in our relationship: we got a dog, I met his parents, we moved in together, he spent his first holiday away from his family (Thanksgiving), we got another dog, I spent my first holiday away from my family (Christmas), he was there to watch me graduate and watch me get my first job, we took our first vacation together, he asked me to marry him (!!), we picked out a ring together, we’re decorating together, we’re buying a car together, I’m about to watch him graduate with his PhD, and now, I feel like we’re ready to take one more big step and start this blog. Our families and friends seem to slowly be moving further and further away and I know that everyone (humor me here) wants to know what we’re up to all the time. Join us as we decorate our place, plan our wedding, and figure out life–but be nice because we’re still learning.
