My spouse and I have been together for a year now as husband and wife, and we are expecting our first born.
When he proposed, we had a decision to make.
Our parents were for the idea of having a huge wedding. They wanted this celebration to invite family and friends. However, we had to think about our future. The plan was to start a family as soon as we had tied the knot. We lived in an apartment in the city, and we wanted a single-storey home with a backyard. So, we chose to put a downpayment on a place we found before we started to think about the wedding. It was such a gem in the right part and close to amenities. Then, we said we would have a small wedding. The main thing was to make sure the house was in the best condition, and even replace the HVAC system. Some people would have continued to use the HVAC system we found in the house since it was still usable. But, we wanted a new unit to ensure our home was comfortable no matter the season. So, we chose to replace it with a modern HVAC system with a higher SEER rating for energy efficiency. An HVAC expert came over to do the replacement after we placed an order on the new unit. A few months later, we called him back to replace the air filters. Changing air filters wasn’t as hard as we had thought and he took us through the steps. The HVAC expert even showed us the right size so we can buy air filters in bulk and store them at home.
