Gettin' Started

Helloooo!

          So this is my "new" blog. I say new because I actually wanted to start this blog a couple months ago and then , well, to be honest with you....life happened. So I am here now and hopefully I will keep up with it. So, let's get started.

          I will start with a little background information about who I am and why I want to live simply. I am a young woman of 21 years old. I am in what feel like a fairy tale marriage with a very supportive husband. We both have a little doggy named Kindle...she is pretty much like our daughter! She is a spoiled little miss! My husband and I both work full time and make a very comfortable living. We want to keep that living going no matter what life throws at us.

           Here is a little about how I grew up. I have always lived a life where I never had to live without anything and most of the time had a lot of extras. It wasn't always like that in my family though when my parents were just starting out and raising my older sisters. My mom really had to count every cent and think of ways to do things cheaper. The great thing about it was that my mom could do that but not give up on fun things and could still live life interesting but frugal. I want to have that for my kids. So even if we always don't have loads of money to take lavish vacations and buy top of the line everything that we can still enjoy the little things in life. :-)

           So I don't want to go on and on about my past because this blog is about my future. I am excited to share my simple ways of living and learn a lot along the way too.
