Meet the adorable 4 month old daughter of my big sister, Katie & her hubby Matt. (Did I mention that we are both married to Matts? And that my brother, Mark, and my father-in-law share the same name? Confused? Us, too.)

I just wanted to introduce her upfront because (a) she's my only niece and thus, my favorite; (b) she's cute as a button; (c) Katie just sent me some new photos & I had to share my favorite with someone other than Matt.

Little lady, you okay with being blogged about?  Thumbs up, Aunt Suz!

Welcome to simply suz.

I’m Susan: a 20something CPA, young married lady, outdoor enthusiast, doting aunt, and now…a blogger! I’ve been obsessively following blogs for about a year now & have loved catching up on the adventures of friends & the occasional stranger(s).

This blog is all about the things in my life that I love:

• Matt: My husband has been putting up with me for 2.5 3+ years (legally) but about 6 7 years (by choice). Bless his heart.
  
• Budgeting: My dream job is teaching financial literacy to 20somethings, so I plan to use this blog to holler at that segment of my readership (ha!) a bit. Click on “Life for Less” to read my personal finance musings!
• Organizing: My closet is color coded. Our DVDs alphabetized. Our filing system - impeccable. I just can’t help myself.
• Cooking: We love to eat, but we’re too cheap to eat out, so we embark on lots of adventures in our teeny kitchen. I may share an occasional recipe.
• The Great Outdoors: We love to travel, but we’re too cheap (sensing a theme here?) to splurge on lavish luxuries like hotel rooms, so we camp…and hike…and love it.
• Life in General: In addition to all of the wonderful things listed above, I love: Jesus, my baby niece, college sports, photography (mostly other people's...but I'm trying to learn), good books, our new life in North Carolina & of course our family & friends. Get ready to hear about all of the above.

Excited as I am? Read on :)
