Happy Days

currently it is about 85 degrees here

and it was only last week that i covered my tomatoes in the garden

because it was like 30 degrees!

crazy tennessee weather!

so i know once again i have been MIA for quite some time

but i do have a bit of exciting news to share,

i'm officially a college senior!

whoop whoop! 

(only took 5 years, but still!)

so yeah i'm pretty excited.

and if everything goes as planned

on May 5, 2012 i will be a college graduate

with a degree in bachelors of science in nursing!

i have few weeks until my RN extern job starts

so im hoping i can get caught up on some things.

so anyways today i'd like to share with ya'll something

that i really do love and that would be

saving money!

who doesn't love it anyways?!

and when your husband is as cheap as mine, 

you gotta get all you can with the small amount of

money for the budget!

so i cut coupons, shop sells and read deal blogs.

i know i've mentioned hip2save before, but 

there are soo many deal blogs that are good and they

really take the guess work out of finding good deals. 

little shopping trips like mine today lets me know 

that couponing works!

so let me share this with ya...

today i kroger i got all this: 

3 jars of Ragu spaghetti sauce

1 bag of Kraft Mozzarella cheese

6 boxes of Razoni pasta

and 1 Freschetta pizza 

for $7.37!

I was super excited!!

I'm telling you that if you have the time to coupon and such

then it is worth it.

Now i have heard lots of negative stuff about this

extreme couponing show and i've personally never watched it.

but in no way do i tend to spend 6 hours in a store

or have 54 boxes of cereal, but

if i can save money on groceries and feed

our little family, then to me- it is worth it.

well i have to go cook some dinner now!

thanks for reading and i hope you all had an 

amazing mothers day with your moms

because i sure did.

and ill leave ya with this picture that we took

at mom's yesterday- it cracks me up!
