Martin and I are fast approaching our wedding anniversary (I know – anniversaries are quickly coming for every couple married in the later part of the summer, right?).  We didn’t even live in the same town, let alone the same state for most of our engagement.  So while making a home involves so many things, the fundamental beginnings of our homes often begin with the people that we live with.  In fact, it’s the people that matter the most.  That’s why I’m excited to start sharing a different sort of post with you each Friday – posts about green weddings, international weddings, and most especially, a look at the things that really matter in our lives – each other.

I’ll wrap the whole series up in August on our anniversary.  Yes, Martin and I are really going to spill the beans on our little wedding – an experience that came far before we ever knew we’d live in Berlin or especially a house made of tires.  But like I said: it matters more who you’re with than where you are and what you have in your home.

The first new little family I want to introduce you to is Christine over at Simple Savvy and her new hubby.  They just got married last month with an oh-so-simple (and completely enviable!) green wedding.  She’s ready to share her little paradise.  But I have to be honest with you.  We’ve already hit the road (or should I say air?) for the 4th of July weekend.  So you’ll just have to hang on a little bit as we launch this series.   Will you do that for me?

To all our American friends and people in the US:  Happy Independence Day.
