We are in West Suffield (North Central, CT)
No kids or furbabies (working on Hub to get a furbaby soon though!)
Fav thing: It's still new, so I think as of right now I'd say calling him my husband instead of boyfriend. I feel so grown up when I say it (I'm 29 and have been living independently for years, but it's like it's official now!)
I have not been on the Nest in ages since I went over to the Tribe, but I thought I'd pop back on here and maybe will when I have time. I'm an old timer as you can see by my anniversary date. I first joined the Knot in 2003.
