My new project

So I have recently gotten into clippin coupons and trying to use them in the best ways. There are two particular blogs that I look at that always have great savings and advise on them. Well, I saw these smart ones on there and had to try it for myself. We went to Target and got 32 of these meals which originally totalled over 72.oo for 5.26 making them around .16cents each. I don't really know how it ended up costing that cheap b/c I thought it would be around 17.oo or so. We went the day before and got 16 of them for 4 dollars and something odd cents. I also went to CVS and got some deals today that I was excited about and managed to find some scrubs for 5.99 that are pretty cute at another store. However, this is all new to me so trying to get organized and figure out how all the different stores accept coupons is taking a little time. Let me know if you have any good advice or websites!!!

Another Great Beach Trip

Last week we went to Destin with my parents, Rach and her boys. It was so much fun. The weather was great. We did some shopping on the one day that it rained and other than that we were at the beach and pool. We went to the track two nights and we drove to PC one night to eat at Angelos (Jeff's fav) and to pier park to let the kids play. They had a great time and I wish we were still there. We rushed home on Saturday to make it to a wedding and still ended up running late due to traffic. My mom actually had to stop in Alabaster, buy a dress and get ready in the bathroom at Target b/c she was not going to make it home and back to the wedding in time. I had about 30 minutes to get ready when we got home. It was a great trip and I cannot wait to go back!

Family pic. I don't have any idea what kind of crazy face Jeff is making.
Me, Mom and Rach. We are dangerous when we are all together. Trouble somehow manages to find us. Just kidding, but it did find my mom. Good thing me and Rach weren't with her or some chic would probably be hospitalized and we would be in lock down.

Mom, Dad and us and our kiddos minus Brooks. He was sleeping.

Having fun at the pool

This boy loves to swim in the pool.

Sitting at the pool watching me, Rach and the kids swim. Mom was at the beach. She pretty much lived on the beach while we were there.


Brooks loved getting in the water. It felt so good.








These boys are crazy about Brooks. They love to watch and play with him.

These boys loved playing at the beach and had such a good time.


Taking it all in.


Weston and Elijah looked for shells together and had no idea me and my mom were sitting there watching them. They were so into finding the shells.





























Meet Brooks best buddy. His papa spoiled him the whole time we were there. If Brooks remotely started to cry, Papa walked him to wherever he wanted to be.

Surfer dudes!




























Trying to stay cool under the unbrella. One of the only downfalls at this condo was, they did not allow you to put up a tent so we had to buy these little umbrellas to provide a little shade for Brooks.
