I cannot believe how fast the summer has flown by! But Its time for my homeschooling venture to begin! I have successfully downloaded Jacks programs and begun preparing for our first year! I am very excited about teaching him at home and I think it will strenghten the family! But anyway, we are ready to begin starting tuesday!!
This month has been so crazy that I haven't even thought if blogging! But I know I needed to update!
My little guys have been playing outside everyday and love to ride their bikes, and being on a high traffic corner, I have to watch their every move! Since moving here in March, it has been nice being free from the financial burden, but we quickly realized that our yard was too small for 3 young boys and we need more space, so we have started looking in the country! Call me crazy but I have had a sudden urge to garden, raise chickens and live the country life! So lets hope another move is on the horizon for the fortner five!!
So many things start this week! School, preschool and awana! I am looking forward to a very inspiring fall!
I am looking for some new recipes for my meal planning and some fun recipes for saving money, I just learned how to make my own laundry soap, how fun and a great way to save money, I would like to learn to do more fun homemade things....any ideas????
Our Life experiences living in the country; raising 3 boys, 2 dogs, several cats, a rabbit and 27 chickens!

I use the thegrocerygame.com to help me save and get the most out of my coupons. All you have to do is cut your coupons and then go to the website and she gives you a weekly shopping list. The ONLY negative about this is that the weekly grocery list is $10 for like 6 or 8 weeks. However, I save on average 55-60% at Kroger. The key is to stock up on things when they are on sale. It also helps the meal planning, b/c you eat what you have and learn to make meals from this. You CAN buys lots of healthy stuff, or you know I wouldn't be doing it! Let me know if you want to know more!
ReplyDeleteAre you doing a Bible study this fall @ LCC?
Jenni-
ReplyDeleteYou can buy a pork loin and put it in the crock pot with some seasonings and water. When it is done you can shred it or cut it up and have several meals. one we are having this week is barbeque. Then I made some cole slaw from scratch, but used the already cut up stuff and just added more carrotts. One cheap meal idea. I have a great cook book called Cheap, Easy, Good, or something like that. I will post some blogs here soon! :)
