A Little About Me

Hi All, I wanted to take a minute to introduce myself and my hopes for my blog. My name is Alexi, and as I mentioned in my "about me" I am a newer blog enthusiast. To be honest, I never really looked at other peoples blogs, Pinterest, or Facebook until about two years ago. My now husband, asked me to marry him in February 2011 and that is pretty much when I became obsessed with finding great ideas for my wedding. Little did I know that I continue to look at great blogs for recipe ideas, crafts, fashion, makeup, shopping, DIY, and pretty much everything else you can think of.

As a newly wed, I can really use all the help I can get. When I was single I never really cooked, unless making a bowl of cereal counts. I was also known for being a pretty compulsive shopper. I really felt that buying clothes every week was a NEED, not a want! So as you can imagine, married life came as quite a shock to me.  All of the sudden I had a desire to learn how to cook, budget our finances, and yes even start putting money away for our family's future. (As just a side note, I am pretty sure I have the most patient and loving husband in the entire world! He is by far the most motivating and inspiring person I know.)

Anyways, all of this has motivated me to start blogging. So, if you are a newly wed like me and are trying to figure this whole married life out, I hope some of my ideas on my blog will inspire you to try new things (the sky's the limit). For those reading this who have been married for years, I hope my blog gives you a good laugh and provides a little perspective of how far you and your significant other have come. :)
