Never leave home without it.....

Here it is, my coupon book. I love this book. This book and I are like peanut butter and jelly. I can't take credit for the idea however, a saw a lady in Target one day using her 3 ring binder and I being nosy....nah... okay, well I asked her. She was so sweet. She took the time to explain that it was just a three ring binder with plastic baseball card holders. (all found at Wal-mart)

You would have thought that it was Christmas. I came home all excited! The next day, I had my very own. :)

I clip coupons out of the Sunday paper every Sunday.... I buy 2 of the double papers so I get 4 copies of coupons AND I get the free Thursday paper. It has coupons in it too! By doing this I sometimes get 5 or 6 of the same coupons.

I never leave home without it. And the kids know, when mama takes in her coupon book... it is going to be a while.

Happy 4th of July

This 4th was a special one. My dear sweet aggravating brother was home in the states to celebrate it with me. He has served in the Army for 19 years now. I am so proud of him. He is one of the many that put their lives on the line to protect our country. He will soon be leaving on his final tour to Afghanistan....this will be his 4th and final tour, hopefully.

He has been very brave over the years and I am so glad to call him my "butter."

We started the day of like all of the past 32 4th of Julys..... at the Marietta parade. I have posted a few pictures for y'all to enjoy.

Here is my sweet little girl. Is she really almost 11?

And this little guy....all he has to do is wink and I am mush.
