K-Mart... again

So my local K-Mart was having another double coupon week so I went and got some really good deals. I also got some deals at Wal-Mart, 2 box's of hot chocolate and 4 cans of tomato sauce for .02! So for everything that you see in the picture I got for $21.46. I was pretty happy... :)

My "little" Brother...

Well, its official... Justin is no longer a teenager. Its so weird to think that my little brother is now 20. I am so proud of the person he has become and I am so excited to see how God is going to use him in the future! Next to Shannon, he is my best friend! Justin has this gift to be able to cheer me up/ encourage me when I'm down or struggling with something and he also knows exactly how to annoy me when I don't need it! :) I couldn't imagine my life without my brother.

Justin, I love you and I am always praying for you and Gods plan for your life. Even through your struggles I see God working on your heart and I see your struggles to do what is right. I love that we can talk for hours on end and not get sick of each other- that is only by God's grace! You are such a gifted, loving, passionate, sweet, strong ;), and godly person. Keep God first in your life and trust him through the hard times. I love you so much and thank God for you EVERY day!
Well, excuse me while I wipe my tears! :D

Last night we had dinner at our house to celebrate Justin's and my moms birthday. It was great! I LOVE having my family over and being able to hang out with them and spend that time with them. And best of all we eat, eat, and eat! I'm still full... :)

Well, I done with rambling for now. Here is a picture of Justin in one of the shirts we got him... I wish I got more pictures of last night but I didn't think about it until everyone left! Oh well... I will get used to thinking about blog stuff one of these days.














And excuse the quality... its from my phone...

Random...

Well I didnt do so good on the garage sale. I was able to get ride of some junk (its amazing what people buy!) but I didnt make that much money- only $36.75. Oh well, maybe next time! I have a few pictures I will put up later...

And on another note, i'm sitting outside on my back porch amazed at the weather we are having! It is in the 70's and breazy- I love it! Im able to sit out here and not sweat to death! Now its finally starting to feel like Fall... my favorite time of year.

Oh and here is a fun little quiz you should take... http://www.fireworkspop.com/colortest.htm

KMart

So my friend Lena and I went to Kmart yesterday. I thought I would just run in grab a few things with my coupons then leave... well we spent 3 1/2 hours there! I was very happy with what I got. The total before coupons was $132.50, and I only paid $50.50, thats saving $82.00! Now considering that, I had to get somethings that I didnt have that good of coupons for. For example, I needed to get bar soap (we were on the last bar) and I only had a small coupon for Lever2000 so I still spent 4.99 on that. Same with some other things we needed. So I would have spent less if I didnt need those certain things. And also with all the stuff I got, I wont need to by any toilet paper, paper towels, shampoo, deoterant, and so on for a really long time! I would encourage you to go down to Kmart if you have coupons and check it out! Make sure you look in the clearance isles too!
Here is the stuff I got:
