my new hobby.

couponing.
yes i do watch extreme couponing. no i am not striving to be an extreme couponer, however i am loving the savings I am getting from couponing. I am also loving some of the tips i have learned from watching the show. So this may seem silly but I wanted to blog about all of the good deals I have found so far.
I got all those dish soaps up to for no more than .75 cents a piece. some of them differed in price. I got all of those laundry detergents for a dollar or less. Those make me happy! When you stack coupons, you can get really good deals.
This is our upstairs closet. I have enough tooth brushes, toothpaste, deodorant, body wash, etc for at least six months. And I just started about a month ago with coupons. I have learn to stack coupons which can really help your savings. Pretty much all of the toothbrushes were free as well as most of the deodorant. If I paid anything for it, it was minimal.
I am hoping that by doing this I will be able to save our family some money and take the stress of some of the harder times by having things on hand that we might need. Plus it is kind of fun to go to a store, buying items, get to the register, only to watch the total drop, drop, drop!!
for those of you that might be interested this website has some awesome tips.

our story

Midwest, United States
I love the saying "the best thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother". My husband does an amazing job of that. I am truly married to my best friend. We laugh often and try to see the best in every situation, or at least find the humor in it. We have four beautiful children. Cullan (7) Kael (6) Briea (3) and Ayla (2). We are currently living in Illinois while Garran attends Grad School. He is a talented print maker and is enjoying his time here. He has a website if you are interested. www.garrangillespie.com Right now we are living every day to the fullest and trying to have as much fun as possible along the way!!

This explains why I blog so much RIGHT?

“Your journal is your autobiography, so it should be kept carefully. You are unique, and there may be incidents in your experience that are more noble and praiseworthy in their way than those recorded in any other life. …
“What could you do better for your children and your children’s children than to record the story of your life, your triumphs over adversity, your recovery after a fall, your progress when all seemed black, your rejoicing when you had finally achieved?”
Elder Spencer W Kimball!

I need to read this every morning!

"It isn't as bad as you sometimes think it is. It all works out. Don't worry. I say that to myself every morning. It all works out in the end. Put your trust in God, and move forward with faith and confidence in the future. The Lord will not forsake us. He will not forsake us. If we will put our trust in Him, if we will pray to Him, if we will live worthy of His blessings, He will hear our prayers."

-President Gordon B. Hinckley
