DARE - Week 50!

Ahhh! Only two more weeks left of this book.  We purchased our next book on Sunday which has 15 minute devotionals for couples.  I'm so proud of us for making it through the year!! Well almost, two more weeks.

This week's dare is to begin praying together with your spouse. Use this time to thank the Lord and to bring your needs, and concerns to Him.

We have started to do this every so often, but this week we will focus on it more.

Also we have started to have no TV evenings.  We read together or separate, get things done around the house, and it just seems to make us both happy.

Tax free weekend!

Hooray shopping for clothes. Not only were all the clothes I bought on sale, but I didn't have to pay taxes! Bought the husband some shirts for his football team, got some shirts for me, and some shorts. :) I may go again tomorrow with my little sister.

Also forgot to mention this weeks dare... It is to read from the Bible daily. I have not been doing well this week with the dare. But I did come home late yesterday to cooked dinner and my husband had the Bible out reading from Matthew.

Publix Update

It has been a while since I posted pictures of a grocery store visit. Today we didn't watch TV but read books and got chores and things done.
I had gone shopping, which I have still been doing well saving, and we started getting more healthy food, but this trip was not as healthy.  I always get breakfast food for my husband, since he works so hard and so early in the morning.  So pop-tarts going on sale was a must.
I was also excited that hamburger buns were on sale as they were already on my list!
I spent $25 and saved $33! Hooray!










Forgot to mention this past weekend I bought a printer!!! So now I can print more coupons!!! My older printer wasn't aligned and we could not figure it out, and since you need it to be aligned for barcodes, we decided it was time to upgrade.  Plus it prints quality pictures!!

DARE - Week 48

This week's dare again mentioned finding a mentor and possibly going to counseling if necessary.  My husband felt confused as this isn't the 40 day Love Dare but is the Love Dare couples for Newly Weds, but we thought about possibly seeing our Pastor and talking to him as we have not done this, and we could possibly use his advice on our next step in life.
