Husbands can be right once in their life
Hello friends! Today I have been a very, very bad wife. I was vacuuming this morning as my fabulous, hunky, handsome husband watched. I was going toward the speaker cord when he told me to be careful before I vacuum it. I told him, "I see it and this old vacuum would not have had enough power to suck it up anyway". So on went the vacuuming when again my fabulous, hunky, handsome husband noticed I was almost about to run over the vacuum cord. This time I did in fact run over it (by accident, I swear!). Let's just say that the cord is now tangled on the brush part and it is shredded like mulch! OOOPPPS! If you could have seen the look I got....I am still scared! LOL!! I asked him if he was mad but he insisted he was not. The bad part is I keep getting the "I told you so" because I completely swore the vacuum was not suctioning properly. Now I am out of a vacuum and I was wrong for one of the very few times of my life! Not a good day :(
Family Finances Update

Hello Everyone,
I received a few emails about my upromise.com
recommendation. It is important that I mention a few facts.
I received a few emails about my upromise.com
- This is a Free program to join and it is designed to help families save money for college education. It will also help those that have Sallie-Mae student loans decrease their balance.
- To sign up you must enter a grocery card, debit card , or credit card at time of signing up.
- When you shop at different locations, money will be credited to your child's account if the product you buy is a sponsored partner of upromise.com
Example Yesterday we had to purchase
- Tylenol Allergy due to the allergies that run crazy in our home. We used our debit card that we have registered with upromise.com .By using that particular debit card, 2% of our purchase price will be credited to our college saving account.
- I grabbed some Bic Razors and we had 3% of the purchase price credited to our account.
- Last stop, Pep Boys Auto where I purchase items to clean the car like tire shine, car wash, car deodorizer, etc.. and had 2 % credited.
See how easy it is to accumulate? 2% here and 3% there can really add up. Just by doing my normal shopping. This is like FREE MONEY! I am now having my mom and father join. Then I am going after the in-laws, aunts, uncles, pretty soon I'll have the whole family reunion contributing to my kids college education. Hey, every little bit helps.
Family Finances

May is also a great time for you to take inventory of all your personal belongings. Take the time to document your personal assets. As we have seen here in the United States, Mother Nature has really been ticked off at us. Why? That is another post for another day. Right now we must learn from her that a hurricane, flood, snow storm, or tornado can strike at anytime. Therefore, having your assets documented via an excel spreadsheet (with serial numbers and photos), or video taped, and stored with your insurance agent can protect you later on.
As mentioned previously, expect oil prices to reach over $70.00 a barrel by summer. What does this mean to you ? It means gas prices will climb to $4.00 a gallon for the average cost across the nation.
Great time to join the FREE program Upromise and start saving for your child's education. Mobile Gas is offering 1 cent per gallon of gas donated to your child's account. Those pennies can sure add up!

Spring Fling




Our Family went to the "Spring Fling" carnival that was held at our little one's elementary school. It was loads of fun! We watched the kids bounce around all over the place, ate corndogs and pizza, and Big Daddy can never stay away from the bake sale!! He says he has to give every effort to "support his child's school".

The kids went on a hayride, we viewed all the cool things the vendors had to offer and the kids had their hair spray painted blue and orange!
We had such a nice time together and were all Spring Flinged out for the year!
Bring it on Ladies!- Go Boy Power!!
