Good Job Josh!!

This is Josh's latest bumper and being the supportive wife I am I just thought I would post it to show the awesome work he does and to show how proud of him I am.

STOP complaining if you didn't VOTE

Hey we voted so don't blame it on us!!!!!!

I makes me (and others I'm sure) so angry to hear people complaining about the government and politics and so on and then at the end of their rant to here them say "well I just don't vote because it's all rigged anyway."

I think if you don't vote you have absolutely NO room to say ANYTHING negative about the president, vp, and/or congress! Period end of sentence.

AND THREE MONTHS AFTER CLASS...

So you wanna know they results of taking the Dave Ramsey class?

the first thing we paid off was a credit card as were the next two debts. that total came to:
about $690.00

next a DHL shipping bill that started out at over $5,000.00 and got paid off in early march.
Sub total $5,690.00

then an over draft was paid off that was $320.00

Saturday was a busy day!

So on Saturday evening I picked up Braeden and Maddy from the dance studio and took them to my house.

Then about an hour later mom got there with Taylor and Kjersten. So when all the kids got there they went outside to play tag. Not 10 min after that, this happened...

So we loaded up all they kids and rushed to the ER. My mom didn't even know how to get there but Josh has a running tab there so I got her headed in the right direction. Josh met us there and picked up the other kids and took them to Chucky Cheeses.

Maddy had stopped crying in the car on the way there so she was doing fine. Then we got settled down and we were just sitting there waiting and Maddy fell asleep so there must not have been alot of pain for her to be sleeping. Finally the nurse came and got us and Maddy got to pick out a Hanna Montana sticker she was very happy about that.

After all her vitals were taken and another 20 min wait the doctor came in and put some numbing stuff on a cotton ball then on Maddy's forehead and taped it down. Then 30 min after that they came in and stitched her up! She only cried like 4 times throughout the hole process.

And this was the after picture.

Then we headed out and Joined the rest of the kids at Chucky Cheeses.

The Pupps Turned 1

OK so I know its not as exciting for everyone else as it was for me but the girls turned ONE on Saturday, March 22.

The cup cakes that spell out Happy B-Day Roxy & Minnie

Roxy with the cup cakes!

Minnie with the cake

They each got their half (they didn't get frosting though).

ok where am I?

So where Have I been that last few weeks?
Well I have been working and trying to keep up with whats going on with the business and, a few other things.

The last class I remember is on...? Um now I don't remember.
Oh ya, it was on your income it basically talked about how most of the time the problem is not with the out-go its with the income.

And the class before that was about saving, investing and, college savings for your kids.
