Summer is here!






School is finally over for the year! That being said, I can not believe that Caden is going to be in the fifth grade! He has been looking forward to summer for sooo long and could not wait to head up to St. Johns. He spends a lot of time with Grandma and Grandpa over the summer months. I decided it would be nice to get out of the heat for a few days, so we all headed to the mountains for some time with Grandma and Grandpa! The weather has been so nice here! When we arrived, everyone was at the park for a BBQ and it was raining just a little bit. It is perfect outside and we are so glad to get away! Happy Summer Everyone!

I am addicted to coupons!


Okay, so I know you are all probably sick of hearing about my coupons! However, I MUST share this one. I thought it was such a great trip to CVS this week. Here is what is in the picture.

3 jumbo packs of pull-ups
3 Ragu pasta sauce
3 skippy peanut butter
3 schick quattro razors
3 toothbrushes (one is an electric spongebob brush)
2 kids toothpaste
1 Nivea sunkissed leg lotion
1 Nivea body wash
1 bayer quick release crystals

Before my coupons and extra bucks the total was $109.00
After my coupons and extra bucks I paid $18.51.

PLUS I have $27.00 in extra bucks to use on my next purchase! Gotta love it!

Winner, Winner!

So, I just want to thank all of you wonderful people out there who sent words of encouragement my way when I was feeling so overwhelmed. I am incredibly grateful for such good people in my life who buoy me up. You all had such good advice, but I have to hand it to the men. I never expected two guys to comment on my post and have such good advice. And so, my dear Jake and Jared, you are the winners who will inherit one fantastic piece sewn especially by me. So I ask, for whom do you want me to sew this item? Please let me know and we will keep in touch. Thank you once again to everyone who commented!

This is what I found on the computer today

DEAR Mother,
To day I’m writing to tell you that how much I love you.
You are awesome, and you are the hardest working mother
I’ve seen in my entire life. Also, just so you know mothers day
Is almost here! So, expect a gift from Dad . You are the most
Hard working mom ever and very kind.
You are the best ever (don’t tell dad) and you are very loving
And cautious. You are the best mom ever.

Love,
Caden


P.S. you are awesome!
