This is Really It - part 2

You know what has really made us feel like our lifetime commitment is official? No, it's not the marriage license or the engagement ring. It isn't the shared bank account or the new couch. It's building a house together.

Sometimes we think that building this house together is more a symbol of us joining together than the actual wedding. Building a house takes a lot of planning, sanity and trust in each other. It will be the place we celebrate all our greatest achievements, console each other after disappointments and enjoy all the times in between. If there was every a symbol of life together, we think this is it.

Since the whole house thing isn't exactly wedding related, we decided to start a blog, Forty Twenty Four, to document the process. The Joeys hope you'll check it out. Don't worry, I'll still share the major moments with you here like this one...



Our official celebration of the permit and breaking ground which happens this week!

Besides the actual wedding, what event or purchase has made you and your FI feel "official?"
