Entering the Blogging World

Hello All!!

Lately, I've been constantly telling Ben that I wish I had kept a journal since our wedding to write down memories of our life together, so that one day in the future we can look back and remember the details of everything we have done. For those of you that know me, I am just not good about keeping momentos, printing pictures, scrapbooking... any of that kind of stuff. I know that one day in the future, I will wish that I had written things down. I actually did attempt to start a scrapbook for Ben before our wedding. However, I finished 3 pages and gave up on it. I just didn't have the patience or a creative gene in my body to allow me to finish. So the three page scrapbook is in our closet..unfinished. Anyway, so after constantly annoying Ben by mentioning how we needed to be writing things down in a journal each time we did something new (like our first Halloween, picking out, cutting down, and decorating our first Christmas tree.. you know all those firsts as a married couple) we actually did go and purchase a journal, but like the scrapbook, the whole process of writing things down didn't go over so well for me. I decided that maybe starting a blog might be easier because I spend so much time on the computer, plus its so much easier for me to type rather than write. Also, I've heard that you can print an actual book of all of my blog posts! That will make it so easy for me to keep and look back on in the future! And, what better time to start this new adventure, than with the turn of the new year!!

So here I am! Starting a blog about our life! I can't believe I am actually entering the blogging world! So let me warn any of you that are reading this, our life is by no means anything exceptional, and this blog probably won't be very entertaining to you. It's just a way for me to document our life, which I know I will one day be so glad that I have done.

Anyway, woo hoo! First blog post is done!! I am having such a hard time figuring out how to work this thing. I would LOVE for anybody that knows anything about creating/organizing a blog to give me any advice or helpful information. I do NOT like the way the blog looks right now. I wish I could make it cute, but I have literally spent two hours trying to figure it out, and can't, so I've decided to take a break and work on it later. Anyone willing to help set me up and get me started, let me know!!

Have a WONDERFUL day!!
