Laughing - Elizabeth Strikes Again!

Elizabeth is nearly 4, going on 13. She has a way of suprising me each and every day. A few of her interesting remarks/actions:

The other day, Elizabeth came running up to me. She started doing, what I thought was rubbing her nose on me. So I told her not to do that because it was gross. She says, "but Mom, I'm just trying to smell you"! --- Oh.....how sweet. I remember the smell of my Mom and loving it. In fact, I still do.

Tonight in the bath tub she asks me what a green glob was on the shelf on the tub surround. I looked and told her, "Oh, that must be toothpaste. When I was in the shower this morning I dropped some when I was putting it on my toothbrush but didn't realize it had landed there". Elizabeth says back, "did you say darnit (worse version)?" What? I had to clarify with her that that was really what she said. Then she says, "well, Mom did you say a naughty word"? --- This was pretty cute, but sad that they know this. The innocence is going away.

Like I mentioned, Elizabeth will be turning 4 soon. She has opted for a princess theme. She will be dressing up as a princess (she has already twirled a million times in the dress she will be wearing). We were discussing the details of all the girls dressing up like princesses. She looked at me and seriously stated, "Well, we will be princesses and Daddy and Alex can be our Princes."--- Ahhhhh.

Living - Coupons a Blessing for Your Family and Others!


Since I have started on this exciting journey of couponing heavily (not as heavy as some of these pros I come across!), I find myself getting things for free or very low cost (with the help of coupons) that I typically don't use or may not know someone who uses it. However, from time to time I do pick them up anyway. Why? Well, I look at it as a way that I can do my part in helping other families out. Remembering that their are families that are struggling or just plain can't afford the daily essentials such as deoderant or a box of cereal makes couponing even more rewarding because I know that I can help them out! And my little ones get to see the excitement in this gesture as well.


Next time you are out and about and you have a coupon that you maybe don't need to use, think of the families that would be thankful of you using it and then sharing your great buy with them.


Think of the St Francis House, The Banquet, Food Pantry, etc as possible places for donating. Anyone else have any great places that these items might be needed?


Spread your savings, bless another family!

Living - Someone's Free "Trash" to Our Treasure!


The Before and After!


Alex enjoying the new chair!A couple weeks back I posted about the Brandon citywide rummages. I had an opportunity to sneak away one evening after supper (without the kids!) to rummage, which meant quick stops and move, move, move! Definitely something I cannot do when I have the little ones around. Among my quick stops I noticed a lone chair sitting in the garage, with a very small sticker that said, "free". What? Had I found a future treasure?! I double checked with the folks running the rummage and they agreed that it was free. "Well, I will take it!" I said. I kind of felt bad taking it for free, knowing that I could find a new life for it.

The chair itself is an old style chair belonging to a high chair. It no longer has the tray and the strap was missing pieces. The vinyl had a crack in it, but all in all it was a prize for it's new home.

I had been looking for a higher set chair to set up to the table for one of my little ones. We have a wood one that had been given to us by my parents and it is a beauty. This will look great sitting next to it and add a little color to my kitchen!

The kiddos and I had a fun trip today to the Second Chance Rescue Center just west of town.

It gave the kids a chance to have fun with cats that aren't sick of the torture (ha ha!) and teach a few valuable lessons. Of course Elizabeth asked if we could take more cats home, but all in all I think she felt good about giving the kitties some food and giving them some love as well.

Saving - Kmart - Cereal As Low As $1.25!


I know this is kind of late in the week to be sharing this, but the deal just came to me through an email from Kmart...a light went on! :-) Kmart has cereal 5 for $10 or $2 each. This is a good price on it's own, as it covers a wide variety of cereals: Post, Kelloggs, General Mills. I shared some coupons earlier this week for the HyVee tent sale that can be used. The best deal would come from the $1.50 off two here. This would make the cereal $1.25 a piece.
