About Me
Thanks for stopping by! I'm Chantelle, twenty four years young and in the run of things I guess still technically a newlywed (September 2009). My husband and I were both born and raised in the North-East of England, and are both members of the LDS Church. We are very happy to be expecting our first baby in November 2010. This blog is a personal outlet for me - a record of anything and everything that goes on in our lives (when I remember to post!). I never was one for keeping a "proper" journal for longer than a couple of weeks at a time, so here's hoping this will be a little more successful!
