Memorial Week's Adventures

What a week it has been!! I'm truly not even sure where to start!

Monday was, of course, Memorial Day. Our family didn't really do much. We'd done BBQ on Saturday, and I'd whipped up a large crock pot full of tortilla soup on Sunday, so Monday was a lazy & quiet day of relaxing, and munching on leftovers.

Tuesday? Well.....Tuesday, Gail and I were SUPPOSE to have gone to Texas Children's for her cardiology checkup. As a result of torrential downpours, and historic flooding, that did NOT happen! I wen't to bed Monday night with my nerves in a wreck at the thought of driving out to Houston in the thunderstorms (I have high levels of anxiety, and driving in storms is a quick way to set off panic attacks for me). My husband had stayed awake the majority of the night, watching the rain and hail come down. He came to bed around midnight, and I got up shortly before 1:00 a.m., when my alarm went off. Gail's echo-cardiogram was suppose to be sedated, which meant she wasn't allowed to eat after 1:20 a.m., so I'd woken her to get her one last bottle before the cutoff time. It was as she was eating that I logged onto the computer to check the radar, as it was heavily downpouring at the time. That was also the same time I started looking, and seeing all the pictures of the floods!

A Day of Adventure at Big Thicket!!!

I truly meant to get around to this post sooner, but we all know that life has a way of getting busy sometimes!!

Tuesday, Maddie's class took a field trip to Big Thicket, and Gail and I used the opportunity to tag along and get out of the house for the day!

Easter Week Adventures!!

What a busy week it's been for us. . .SERIOUSLY!!!

To start things off, my oldest daughter spent most of her week at home with me thanks to a nasty stomach bug that didn't want to go away. For that reason, I wasn't really able to snap any pictures of her to use for this post. I hate seeing my babies sick! The only good thing that came of it is that she and I were able to spend some much needed time together....something we haven't really been able to do since Gail was born.

Tuesday, sweet Kay had her very first field trip! The local co-op had a huge Easter egg hunt and fun Easter activities for pre-k students from participating schools.

2015 Reading Challenge!!!

So I randomly started reading a book last week on my Kindle app, and I'm glad I did! Reading through this book (when I actually have time, of course) has reminded me how much I really enjoy reading! Growing up, I was that teen that stayed locked in her room, reading....ALL the time. I want to get back into reading again, like I use to!

I found this reading challenge over on Tumblr, and I'm officially intrigued!

Explanations

My apologies for not posting very much lately!

I do love finding deals and sharing them, however, life has been very busy recently!

My youngest child was born with CHD (Congenital heart defects) and Heterotaxy Syndrome. We've made several trips back and forth to different doctors recently, resulting in the lack of posts. My goal is to make sure to start posting more despite the busy schedule!

Patience is appreciated :)

BoostInsider Review

What is BoostInsider?
BoostInsider is a promotion platform that makes it easy to make money if you want to work from home. As with all online job opportunities, how much you earn depends greatly on how much time you're willing to invest.

Saturday, January 17, 2015

My name's Jen, and I'm married with 3 beautiful little girls! I'm all about finding deals, and finding ways to save money. I also have a knack for finding awesome freebies, and I love writing reviews on the products I try! I also love finding new ways to earn a little money from home (Who wouldn't want that??). 

People are always asking me how I find such good savings, freebies, etc., and are always asking me to teach them how to do it. Now, I'm not very good at teaching, but I AM going to try to help! In this blog, I'll post about; savings and coupon deals, reviews on products received, reviews on online products, etc. I've also found a TON of old family recipe cards from my husband's side of the family, so I'll be posting lots of those too as I try the recipes myself (yummy looking pictures to be included!!).

Anyways, here's to hoping you all enjoy my blog! :)
