When you get married typically your family and friends send you money.
You then take that money and either pay for your wedding or blow it on the honeymoon.
My husband and I are not those types of people we went off and eloped, just the two of us. Then we did a reasonably cheap honeymoon stateside to save money. Once everyone started sending us money, we saved it for something. Now the two of us have quite a nest of cash and don’t know what to do with it. We agree that it should go towards something in the house. I am strongly thinking about the windows in our house. Right now we have black frame windows that are so old that they don’t open. They also have glass that looks fogged over and dirty. It makes our house not look as modern and clean as it could. I want to get white windows with clear, clean glass. I also would like to expand some of the windows in the house to let in more natural light. I want the kitchen window wider, to add one in the laundry room and to make the bathroom window floor to ceiling. This would require hiring a contractor and then a window company to do the installation. While we are at it, I would like to add window tinting to the bill as well. I don’t want to have curtains or blinds anymore. Adding a tint provides privacy and sun protection. It would look much classier from outside the house too.
