Newlywed from Oak Lawn!!

Hello nesters!!!  My hubby and I tied the knot about a week and a half ago and just got back from our honeymoon! We'd love to meet other couples in the area, as most of our couple friends live rather far away. I used the knot to plan my wedding and am looking forward to using the nest (and hopefully the bump someday soon!!!!Smile) for other great tips and ideas!

Please feel free to send me a hello!

 

Kate
