10 things we have done this summer.



1. We have a family tradition of cleaning, visiting and decorating the graves of our loved ones on Memorial day. We enjoyed having time with our family to do this. Memorial Day also happened to be Brittan's birthday so we release.







Below is the vinyl lettering I had made to put Roman's name on Brit's grave. Some day we will engrave his name on it. But it's quite expensive and I am hoping we are not done having kids.

Lot's of people love Baby Brit and bring something special for him each year. Thanks to all those that do that! :)

We let balloons go in his honor and its such a sweet moment to watch a balloon fly to heaven.

Roman does not agree. He was very upset when his balloon went.

He chased them crying. It was very sad.




I was already bawling and it just made me cry a little more!

2. We went and ate dinner at Tucano's for my little sisters birthday. It's my favorite Brazillian BBQ spot. Delish. Quite the crowd, as usual.

3. We went to Lagoon for Lagoon Stake Day. It rained but the lines were zilch so it was fun when the rain stopped. Roman loved Lagoon and still says "my ride, my ride, I play Mama, please." whenever we pass Lagoon. A few hightlights below..

4. We went to Lagoon again the next day with friends. Roman and his girlfriend Ardy B. Shaffer. It's hard to see in this picture but Roman has his arm around her. They were so darling all day. She wouldn't ride a ride unless she could ride with her Rony.





5. My grandpa put together a little baby bunny petting zoo at his house for Roman. He loved them dearly and they feared him for their lives.

My Sweet Recessionista Shopping..

Went on my first shopping trip using the advice from a couponing class held by my friends cousin, her blog is "A Sweet Sale" and she uses the website Grocery Smarts. My friend Kristy Egan started a few weeks ago and now that I am back in town I have been itching to get started. Here are the stats on my first trip:
Items Purchased: 3 Gallons of Winder Farm Milk, 7 boxes of name brand cereal, 2 boxes of Wheat Thins, 2 bottles of fancy Dawn detergent, 1 box of foil and 2 Colgate Whitening toothpaste.
Cost: $14.58
Savings: $49.62
The cost of the website she uses and her advice is zero.
She holds classes if anyone is interested I would be happy to host another one here at my house. Its truly amazing if you take a little time, (the class teaches you how to get organized) the amount of money that can be saved on quality products! Hope everyone starts doing it to!

Devastation


My local Krispy Kreme is no longer providing a free donut when the hot sign is on. I seen the sign on today while heading to Hobby Lobby, and my sister not usually living with me, has not really experienced the pleasure of the hot sign. It's lure is very enticing to a newbie. So in we go, and we were slammed in the face with a sign that says something about how they would love to give us a free hot donut as long as we purchase something. Sad. Now the economy is really hitting home. Good thing I am a total recessionista!
P.S. I do know that I am supposed to be on a diet. But when have I ever had self control.
