Couponing

For those who know me well know I love a bargain. I especially love couponing.  I'm talking extreme couponing.  Like getting stuff free couponing...sometimes making a profit couponing. ..or getting items for pennies on the dollar couponing. I love it!!  I literally cringe when I see folks in the store paying full price for things and I'm thinking you could get that a lot cheaper. My favorite place to shop is CVS. My deals this week...4 Speed Stick deodorants, 4 boxes of cereal, 2 Colgate toothpastes, 2 (14 ct.) Tide Pods, 1 2liter pepsi, and 1 dishwashing liquid...grand total spent... $1.45  Yes you read that right!! $1.45  If you want to know how I learned how to do this go to southernsavers.com and watch Jenny's videos. She'll show you everything. It's overwhelming at first and kind of intimidating but I am so glad I took the time to learn. It saves my family so much money. Plus I love it! :) I've included a picture of two of my receipts...notice the balance on both are ZERO before tax :)

Gunner

Gunner has been sick the last several days but it hasn't hindered his personality any. He is still the sweetest most outgoing little feller. He is such a blessing to our home. Please pray for him. He was scheduled to have surgery on his little hand in the morning, but because of his being sick we have had to postpone it. He got his left hand caught in our treadmill back in August. It healed very well, but because of the trauma, he kept his hand bent during the healing process and his two middle fingers are scarred and will not straighten completely.  You can imagine how horrible this has made Scott and I feel. We never dreamed it could do so much damage. But God is still good. Things could be far worse. There's always so much to be thankful for.

Done with facebook

So I finally decided after some soul searching, to get rid of my facebook and instagram accounts. I won't say why. But it wasn't a hasty decision. It took about two months to decide. But I now have peace that I have done what is right for me. So here's hoping to pick my blogging back up to keep in touch with everyone. Happy New Year by the way!! :)

Dollywood

We recently got to take a trip to Dollywood with my family...my sister and her family, my brother and his wife, and Mom and Dad. It was just a great day to get to be together. The kids had a blast. I'm so thankful for my family.

Happy 6th birthday, Zek
