The Truth About Life as Newlyweds

Everyone thinks that life as newlyweds is pure bliss 24/7. I must admit, when it comes to our relationship it can't get much better. However the reality is that being young and newly married also means being broke! Santiago and I have recently started to work on a budget that will hopefully allow us to quickly pay off debts, save money, and hopefully furnish our new home as well. That being said...we are going to have to suck it up and avoid all the fun stuff that we love to do. No more weekend getaways, no more concerts, no more shopping, no more pedicures, no more eating out. This is all very challenging for us due to the fact that we live in such a happening city with so many great getaways close by. If we were in boring old Indiana it wouldn't be so hard:) Boooooo. I guess that is just part of "growing up".
