Snow and Snowball payments!

I am super excited!! There is finally SNOW coming down! Real snow...not that flaky crap...I am so happy that Rory might actually get to play in snow this year! Last year she was only about 9-10 mos old and I took her out when we had a good 7-8 inches. She really enjoyed it!!

This year she is old enough to actually play in it and there hasnt been ANYTHING but a dusting on the ground for maybe 2 hours...BOOO! But now we have at least 2-3 inches and its still coming down!!


So tomorrow should be fun!!

On another note...My hubby and I are trying to become debt free. We are following the Dave Ramsey plan and have so far paid off $10K in credit card debt, Ryans car ($7K) and are currently paying off my car (just under $9K left on it!!) So with him hopefully coming home soon, we will be changing up our routines and going to cash only...All our bills are paid online but things like groceries, household items, baby stuff, entertainment and our blow money will be gas. We will keep a debit card for gas so we can do pay at the pump...So I took some time between kiddos I made some envelopes like the DR plan sells...His are not so pretty so a fellow DR fan posted a template and instructions to make your own!! They were so easy to make and look so cute; plus I can switch them out depending on my mood!





So now with that done I need to start packing so we can move back to our house...We need to fix up the water damage from the pipes bursting. Hopefully we will be back home within a couple of weeks. The check came thru from the insurance company so woohoo!! It will help with the updates to the house as we are doing the repairs ourselves so we wont have to pay for labor...Recently had the living room/family room area redone...

Old look

New Look (Its from a cell phone...you can just barely see the trim and walls...Trim is being redone as there is an opening between the old trim and new floor due to the shag carpet)

So it will be a busy year for us but hopefully an exciting one!! The kids are growing more everyday. Rory talks more and more in sentences and Lily is climbing all over everything. I cant believe how fast they have grown...

Rory has grown so fast...Some days it seems like yesterday she was born....


Now she is potty training and being a great big sis!!


My lil Christmas angel...

Lily is giving mommy a heart attack with all her growing and climbing...She climbs on anything and everything...(dont mind the mess!! LOL)



Apparently she wants to potty train too!! Woohoo!! No more diapers! I wish!

But I suppose that is all...It had been awhile since I updated so not all my posts are normally this long...Thanks for reading!!
