Saving Money!!

So I have decided that I want to start couponing! I have thought about it a lot and I really want to start! I have a friend that is helping me get started and I have to say thank you so much!!!! Since I am a stay at home mom I figured what better way to help out my hardworking husband than to save him some money on groceries!! Since I am at home taking care of my two beautiful children I figured this would give me something to do each week and also save my family a butt load of money!!! 

I got my binder, baseball holders, and dividers!!!

Here are my dividers in my coupon binder.....

Baby
Bakery
Baking
Canned/Boxed
Beverages
Condiments

So let the savings begin.........

T-Ball

Pendleton Indians!!

So Lucas finished his first season of t-ball!!! I have to say that he did really good! It is so hard to believe that my baby boy is already 4 years old!!! Where has all the time gone??????? He was the clown of the team! When he would run to first base he wouldn't just run straight to first he would take his own course! It was the cutest thing ever! I am so very proud of my little man!!!!

He is such a handsome little man!!!!!                                                          His trophy!

He was so proud of his trophy that he got!! The coaches were very patient with him and I am very thankful for that!!! Lucas was famous for his dirt angels!!!

How I met "The One"

I love this man!!

When I first met Kevin we were in high school. The funny thing is he like my best friend!! Too funny! They talked for a little while but never really hit it off. He told a mutual friend that he liked me. Well.... needless to say I didn't really like him too well. He sat with my friends and I at our lunch table. He drove me CRAZY!!!!  When I found out that he liked me I honestly didn't know what to think about that. But I decided to give him a chance. We started talking. Turns out He wasn't so bad! :) I still remember him asking me out at school on February 2, 2005! I was so nervous!!!

Turns out... I feel head over hills for him!!! 

In December of that year he gave me a promise ring for Christmas. I couldn't believe it!!!!We moved in together when he graduated. (well with me and my parents.)

He proposed to me on July 4, 2007 at botanical gardens. I couldn't believe that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with me!

When I graduated in 2007 I moved in with Kevin in our first place! We moved in a small 2 bedroom apartment. We set a date.... June 13, 2009.

Well we got pregnant with our son Lucas! I had him on April 14,2009! He was a 8 pound 7oz bundle of sweet joy!!!

In 2010 we found the house we live in now!! We now have a daughter Sydnei who was born on February 4, 2012! She was a whopping 10 pounds 5 oz baby girl. (even 2 weeks early too).

I say all of this to say this... my marriage is not perfect. We have been through so much in the past 8 years. We were even just papers away to being divorced when the Lord put us back together!! My Marriage is together today because of the Lord! He opened my eyes and Kevin's to see that we are made for each other. Yes things happened in our marriage that never should have happened but did all for a certain reason. Its by the grace of God that those things wont happen again. I thank God each day that he opened my eyes to his wonderful grace and mercy!!

This is the man who stole my heart!!!
