Expand your horizons

I know everyone, especially in my family, thinks that Cailen and I are crazy for buying a house. Honestly some days I think we are too, but it has expanded our horizons tremendously. First off, we aren't living at home, or at the in-laws(love you R&J) but we also aren't spending a ton to live in our own house. This is awesome. Owning a house that, at least when we bought it was worth $280,000 has only costs us about $300/month and that includes utilities. Buying our first house also enabled me to get Cailen a kick-ass engagement ring - Thanks Obama! I will explain how taking a plunge and venturing into a CALCULATED risk has opened so many other doors.

like these posts, babe. they're short and sweet (or down and dirty as I put it earlier : ) i like your honest, no-holds-barred approach and the fact that you're not afraid to tell it like it is. well, i think that's enough cliche catch-phrases for one comment... lol
