13-5-2009 - Some cute ideas...

My mood while writing this blog: creative

We usually get the girl's pictures done at the beginning of May for thier birthday pictures. We are just not able to afford it this year. We are going out to the country with our camera and we are going to do our own little photo shoot like we did for our Christmas pictures. My dad will be the photographer again and we will get family shots, one's of each girl alone, and the girls together and one of Quentin and Me. I'm so exited we are hoping for the end of May beginning of June. I'm going to find some cute cloths for them to wear and just make a day of it. I'm really exited!!! The prints that we want to get in different sizes we will go to Wal-Mart, Target, or even Hy-Vee and only get a few. We will save at least $150 and we will be able to move on our own time schedule and keep all the pictures and not have to pick.

I’ve also been going threw cloths and finding great things I forgot I had. I’m exited about getting the basement cleaned up and get more things collected for the garage sale. We hope to bring in at least $200.00 from the garage sale but we will see. I’m very blessed by family and friends that love us and want to see us make it. Quentin applied for a different job and so PLEASE pray that he gets it. He’s not heard back but I’m hopeful and think that if its meant to be it will and if not then God has a better plan.

We are doing great with saving money and have five garbage bags of cans that we found or were given this month and its only the beginning of the month so we are exited to see how much money we get from all those cans, and what ever else we find. Getting out of debt feels like a money saving game and it's kinda fun when you think of the different ways you can save money.
