“But blessed is the one who trusts in the LORD,
whose confidence is in him.
They will be like a tree planted by the water
that sends out its roots by the stream.
It does not fear when heat comes;
its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought
and never fails to bear fruit.”
Jeremiah 17:7-8

Today I had an idea so I am putting forth what has been laid on my heart.
Save, Give, Spend
This concept isn't new, just the way we are going to go about it is new for us.

SAVE: Pretty easy to understand save for future us. Easy to understand not as easy to put into practice for us. Labeled RED for STOP don't touch!

GIVE: In this jar is the money we can use to bless others; family or friends in need, church, the homeless, or special non profits that speak to our hearts. Labeled YELLOW for pray-fully consider who to bless.

SPEND: No need to explain this is our extra spending cash. Labeled GREEN for go ahead and spend.

Over two months!


Sorry for being away so long, many things have gone on in the past 9 weeks!

~Galilee and Justin's show opened and closed "The Music Man" Justin did a great job directing and Galilee was so sweet up on stage

~Justin had a birthday during the shows run so we really haven't celebrated

~We had a double rainbow birthday party for Felicity and Quinn, they are growing so quickly before our eyes!

~Katie and Cassie graduated high school!!

~Esther had her 4th heavenly birthday, we had a Esther bear party where family came over and got to make their very own Esther bears.

~The kids are out for their summer break, so this means a lot of swimming, beach days, and trying to keep 4+ kids entertained, we get to have nieces, nephews, and siblings over during the summer.

~Justin became a pirate(fun stuff)

~Mylove(justin) and I celebrated our 9th anniversary!
