We are over the moon excited! We just did a gender reveal party and I thought I would share it. This was seriously the easiest, most stress free party ever. We had it at StorkVision. This place provides sneak peek ultrasounds for new parents and even early gender reveal ultrasounds. They took care of everything all we had to do is show up. Easy Peasy!<br />

It started out with me and my sister deciding that we want to be more self sufficient. I've been on this kick for a while and I guess I finally convinced her to join me in this little adventure. I've been reading lots of blogs about farming on an acre and backyard homesteading. Me and Becca got to talking and we were like Hey yeah we could do that! We figured it'd be soo educational! The kids will love it (and it will get them out from in front of the T.V.), what could go wrong? So she decided to raise rabbits. Supposedly rabbits are excellent for small farms because they produce an awesome amount of meat with very little work (yeah right). And I found some potbelly pigs super cheap. I did a little research, you know read all of two articles, and I learned that pot belly pigs are raised for meat by the Vietnamese. I figured hey if they can do it so can we! Donna's house has a cyclone fence around it. It's even divided into different yards. She has a front yard, back yard, a seperate side yard and a little chicken pen. She was cool with us throwing the pigs in her side yard. Now let me take a minute to explain my reasoning, OK? I figured pot belly pigs are kinda like medium dogs right? I mean they are kinda small like a dog? And if you can raise a rabbit to eat well a pig would have more meat than a rabbit. It wouldn't be a lot of meat but it would be enough and it won't cost any food cause I can feed them slop. Between Donna , Becca and me we should have PLENTY of slop to feed them. It all sounds so reasonable. No. Not so much. We got 3 pigs, a momma, daddy and baby. a sweet little family, awwww. No! Right off the bat we had to separate them because the dad and baby was fighting. The baby of course was a male. Then we learned the momma pig was probably pregnant. Well we couldn't keep the momma pig in with the baby because apparently he will kill the babies. We also can't put the momma in with the papa pig for the same reason. And we can't put the baby pig in with the papa because they will fight. So after alot of reasearch we decided to get rid of Baby pig. No problem. Everyone wants a baby pot belly pig. Baby gone. Now I start to notice these pigs look a little weird, I mean Papa looks like he has tusks, is that normal? And their hair looks like I don't know weird and kinda wild. These don't look anything like the pictures of potbelly pigs I've ever seen. Then I find out you gotta keep the babies almost a year before you can slaughter them out. So not worth the hassle for that little bit of meat! And then they start digging under the fences and getting out. And they seriously are rooting up Donna's whole yard! This IS NOT what I had in mind! So I decide to sell them. $20 bucks apiece and they are gone! Easy Peasy! Nope, not so much. Nobody wants them so after a week or two of them steadily tearing up her yard and getting out and driving me crazy I decide to just give them away! I just want them gone! Any takers? NO! Seriously! I listed them on like 10 Facebook groups! FREE Pigs! Come and get them! Please! Nope. Not one call! So then a cop shows up at my door, "Hey Lady you got some pigs out?" Yes officer I do. He tells me he is gonna call animal control and get them. Now I guess he thought I wouldn't be happy about that but I tell him that's great I been trying to get rid of them. Please call animal control. Please come get them. So he tells me well, if they get them they are going to fine me. Ok this may still be a good idea, at this point I'm willing to PAY to get rid of them so I say ok, how much? He kinda looks at me then says "I'm not gonna do that, go get your pigs". Well! Bummer! There goes that! So we jump in the van just like we know exactly how to catch pigs and drive down to Donna's. We actually get them pretty easy. Kyle just jumped out with the pig bucket and they follow him right into their pen! Yeah! Piece of cake! Um... NO! While I'm going to get Becca and her husband because now I've gotten the brilliant idea to turn them loose on Becca's hunting land They get out AGAIN! I come back with Daniel and Ricky ( her husband and son) and we spend the next 3 HOURS chasing these 2 pigs all over the neighborhood. The kids are now hot, thirsty and tired and haven't even had breakfast yet. Ricky and Daniel are aggravated and decide to just shoot them. By now even the little girls are agreeable to this. Anything to just stop having to chase them. But Becca who hasn't been chasing them for 3 hours brings reason and sanity back to the group, and we call Animal control to find out seriously how much is the fine . I will gladly pay it! Please, Please! And they say... wait for it.... it's FREE! Free if you let them have the pigs! Seriously? Really? You couldn't of mentioned that 3 hours ago before we chased them 80 miles in the 150 degree Texas heat!? Let me think? Yes please come get them and you may certainly have them for your trouble. Ya. Turns out "Animal Control" is a 70 year old man and his grandson with a few pig traps in their pick up. They have a bunch of land to turn them loose on. O well. At least they are gone. And what do I find when I get home? At least 10 different people, emailing, texting and messaging me begging for the pigs! Now for the lesson that I learned. When I got the pigs Shane told me it was a bad idea. We aren't supposed to have pigs in the city. I'm gonna regret it. It's a hassel. Now I could of said "You're right dear, lets take this money and go to Rancho Grande instead, or even hey, let's go buy some pretty flowers. I never heard of flowers tearing up a yard. Did I say that? Did I listen? Nope. Will I next time? Probably not. No seriously, I have learned my lesson! Sometimes husband does know best! I seriously am done with animals, I may even get rid of my fish. I'm. Just. Done.<br />

We are doing so much better than we were two years ago.Back then were living paycheck to paycheck, a lot of times we were already into our check before we even got it. It took a LOT of work, sacrifice, and patience but it is so worth it! Both of our vehicles are paid off and we hope with maintenance to keep them a very long time. We ended up having to buy a new washer and dryer and that was a huge expense that we didn't count on. And we bought Ashley a car which we paid cash for (using our tax refund). We were so tempted to go to a dealer and get under a note but we stuck to our cash on the barrel plan and paid it straight out. Unfortunately she ran the car with no oil and blew the motor up! So we went back on our plan and borrowed the money to fix it. We have been very aggressive about paying it back and only owe about 9 more payments. Even with these setbacks though I'm very proud of our progress. We still use the envelope method of budgeting. I am really amazed how well it works! We have adapted it a little bit though. Now I try to only pull out the bare minimum that I need for bills and leave as much as I can in the checking account. Then the night before payday I check our balance and transfer whatever is in the checking account to the savings. By doing this we finally have money in our savings account for the first time ever. It's not a lot yet but it is slowly building up. And the kids all opened a savings account and we even opened one for our grandson. I took a tip from The Automatic Millionaire and called our mortgage company and did two things, first I set up our mortgage payments to be paid every two weeks instead of once a month, Second I set up to pay a little extra each time to go straight to the principle. Just by making those two small changes we will knock almost a year off our mortgage which means our house will be paid off in a little over two years! Yeah! I have to admit since money isn't as tight we do eat out a little more often, but try not to eat out more than twice a paycheck. We were able to reduce our phone bill nearly to half but ended up getting Hulu and Netflix (less than $20 for both) so we still came out ahead. Ashley graduated so we were able to save $70 a month on her school. I think the hardest thing is not making any new bills. It's so tempting to just go buy it on credit, but it is so nice not to worry every single payday how we are going to pay everything when we have more going out then coming in. We were even able to use some of the extra to start a retirement fund! So that's where we are, It took along time and we aren't where we need to be yet, we still have set backs, and Shane's job is so up and down but at least now when he gets a low paycheck it's not such a stress it usually means there won't be any left over to save instead of there won't be enough to pay all our bills.Project31_livehappyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17503045194913259716noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1233973501411430980.post-38120881803446179342015-06-05T01:33:00.001-05:002015-06-06T13:58:16.602-05:00Poetry by Edgar Albert Guest- On Quitting<h2 class="title" itemprop="itemreviewed">
On Quitting</h2>
<div style="margin-top: 20px; min-height: 570px;">
<div class="KonaBody">
How much grit do you think you've got?<br />
Can you quit a thing that you like a lot?<br />
You may talk of pluck; it's an easy word,<br />
And where'er you go it is often heard;<br />
But can you tell to a jot or guess<br />
Just how much courage you now possess?<br />
You may stand to trouble and keep your grin,<br />
But have you tackled self-discipline?<br />
Have you ever issued commands to you<br />
To quit the things that you like to do,<br />
And then, when tempted and sorely swayed,<br />
Those rigid orders have you obeyed?<br />
<br />
Don't boast of your grit till you've tried it out,<br />
Nor prate to men of your courage stout,<br />
For it's easy enough to retain a grin<br />
In the face of a fight there's a chance to win,<br />
But the sort of grit that is good to own<br />
Is the stuff you need when you're all alone.<br />
How much grit do you think you've got?<br />
Can you turn from joys that you like a lot?<br />
Have you ever tested yourself to know<br />
How far with yourself your will can go?<br />
If you want to know if you have grit,<br />
Just pick out a joy that you like, and quit.<br />
<br />
It's bully sport and it's open fight;<br />
It will keep you busy both day and night;<br />
For the toughest kind of a game you'll find<br />
Is to make your body obey your mind.<br />
And you never will know what is meant by grit<br />
Unless there's something you've tried to quit.
<br />

But it has grown into a desire to help my kids get ahead start on their finances. I started out with a few Bible studies me and my husband did together. Then I moved on to books by Robert Kiyosaki. I read Rich Dad, Poor Dad, and Guide To Investing. I bought Cashflow For Kids the game, which the kids LOVE. And I found a really great show on Hulu called Biz Kids. This show is really awesome, It's very informative, easy to understand, each episode is pretty short and it's really, really funny. The kids really get a huge kick out of it. Anytime I go to Goodwill or another resell store I look around their book section to see if they have any books on finances, whether it's about getting out of debt, or making budgets, or stock markets, or even kids books, I buy them. I've found several really good kids books on finances and money. Then I just sort of strew them around. I leave some on the coffee table, maybe stick a couple in their book basket and the kids find them and flip through them. I think it's really working! They are already learning the language and I hear words like income, paychecks, taxes, interest, and bank accounts sprinkled into their conversations. We sat down and counted the money in Lily's piggy bank tonight and she had over $40.00!! In about a year she has already saved up almost $200.00. That is not bad for a 7 year old. Kyle has saved almost $150.00, and Lacey has saved almost $70.00 ( she is obviously the spender of the group). This is all money the earn or change that we put in their piggy banks. I try to clean my purse out every few days and divide the change between, Lily, Lacey, Kyle and Joshy. Donna and Shane also help out by giving their spare change. I discourage the kids from taking money out of their piggy banks, their spending money goes into their purses or wallet, but ultimately it's up to them if they want to tap into their piggy banks they can. They don't get a very big allowance Kyle get $10-$20 every 2 weeks and Lily and Lacey get $5 every two weeks. They sometimes earn extra money by doing extra chores either for me or for their sister, Donna. They get money for Birthdays and sometimes for Christmas, and sometimes if we go to a garage sale or flea market I will give them a few extra dollars which they can keep, spend or save. I hope just the experience of saving now will encourage them to become lifelong savers.<br />
<br />
I am costantly looking for blogs and articles about finances, investing or introducing economics to kids, so if you have and artice or blog to recommend please leave a link in the comments!<br />

<br /></div>
I stumbled on a another online program for home school and it is really, REALLY awesome! Let me start off by saying that I wasn't given anything to do this review, I just love sharing when I find a great resource. <a href="http://always-icecream.com/login" target="_blank">Always Ice Cream</a> is a site for girls only that is full of games and education videos. It is a christian site which I love. The girls can add friends (kinda like a Facebook for kids, that is completely safe and moderated). They can even join groups and email or send messages to their friends and the girls in their group. Girls can build and decorate their house and even design decorations and furnishings and clothing and open a store. Then they set the price of what to sell their items for and sell them to the other Always Ice Cream Girls! I love this because it goes along with the business stuff we are focusing on right now. In their store they have to pay for the item they design, like say they are going to design a couch they have to choose the couch and pay for it. I'm not sure what the costs are but then they customize it with different colors or fabrics, So if they pay $25 scoops (they pay with Ice Cream Scoops instead of money) for it then they sell it for $30 they only make a $5 profit. They can buy pets and food and accessories for their pets. All this is just the bonus extra stuff. The best part of the program is that to earn the scoops to buy and do this stuff you have to play the games or watch the videos, all of which is educational! And not just educational but really fun! You can set the grade level that the kids are playing at so they aren't just playing way below their level. There are games and videos that teach, Math, Language Arts, History, Science, Life Skills ( my girls love the Cooking Class and Cooking Show games!),Foreign languages, Geography and Bible (I'm pretty sure you can set your account to Christian or Jewish and maybe Secular). They also have just for fun stuff but you can't earn scoops for that stuff. This program is so full of inceitives! Some of the things you can do is play against your friends, earn medals when you level up in a game and they have a top earner contest each month, where if you are one of the top earners that month you get limited edition stuff for your pets! The site is for either Kindergarten or First grade to Eighth grade. Now I bet you are thinking WOW! All that must be pretty expensive! Nope! All of that for less than $9.00 a month! And they offer a FREE trial! Oh and each week you will receive an email with a report of everything your child learned and did that week! All the games they played, any medals they earned and what videos they watched. If you have a boy that you think would just love something like this you are in luck, they have a boy's site called Clever Dragons! This isn't just great for homeschoolers, it would be awesome to play after school or during the summer.<br />

<br />
<a href="http://pbskids.org/itsmylife/games/mad_money_flash.html" target="_blank">It's my life Game</a> Super easy and fun game that is easy enough for young kids to get the concept but challenging enough that older ones can't beat it the first time- It's a good introduction to buying and earning.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://pbskids.org/itsmylife/games/boss/index.html" target="_blank">Be your Own Boss Game</a> this game is a little easy to beat but is a great introduction to starting a business. In this game you pick a business, decide how to get your capital to start the business, learn about promoting and advertising. It's really simple and easy enough for even young kids.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.moneyinstructor.com/elementary.asp" target="_blank">Teaching Elementary Economics</a> This site has lots of lesson plans and games to teach economics.<br />
<br />
If you have access to Hulu they have a great show called Biz Kids.<br />
<br />
A few book resources:<br />
My two favorite Bible Studies are How to Manage Your Money by Larry Burkett and Discovering God's way of Handling Money by Crown Financial Ministries.<br />
<br />
Some Really great books that I have read are The Money Smart Family System by Steve & Annette Economides, I don't follow their system but they have some great advice and really help get you motivated to make changes in the way you view money. Managing You Money Cliffsnotes, I found this book for like 50 cents at Goodwill and it's a really good introduction to economics, saving,and investing. It's written simple enough for an older kid or a teen to understand. Rich Dad, Poor Dad and Guide to Investing both by Robert Kiyosaki and one of my favorites that I read over and over is The Automatic Millionaire by David Bach. This book is the one that really got me to make the changes I needed to. It's such a simple concept that can literally change your financial situation. I got is at Goodwill for like $2.00. Best money spent ever!<br />
<br />
And my favorite books for kids are The Everything Kids Money Book by Brette McWhorter Sember, J.D. and The Young Investor by Katherine R. Bateman. The Everything Kids Money Book is one I left on the coffee table and Kyle and Lacey both would flip through it. It's simple and Interesting. The other book is outstanding for kids and adults to learn about investing in stocks, bonds, and CD's. It is simple to understand, but very informative.<br />
<br />
I also bought Cashflow for Kids the game. It's kinda expensive but I lucked upon a really cheap one on Ebay. It is awesome.<br />

I never learned to balance a checkbook, make a budget or even simple things like saving money or planning for my retirement. As a result I am years behind what I could be doing. I am determined to give my kids a head start on these kind of things. I want relevancy in our homeschool and I gotta admit I still got a little of that unschool, real life learning spirit in me. I want my kids to be able to succeed in our world. And it's not the same world I grew up in. Finances is one of the most relevant things we can teach our kids. And one of the most neglected even among homeschoolers. I have never been asked to diagram a sentence or label the anatomy of a frog but I have needed to open a checking account, fill out a W-2 form, make a budget, pick a 401 k, manage a retirement fund. All these are things I had no idea how to do and so I put it off, neglected it and made costly mistakes. So I've been researching, reading, and finally implementing these things in our homeschool. I started out by opening each kid a savings account. I was able to open a little savers account at my bank for just $10. The kids all earn money by doing chores. I know some parents don't believe in paying kids to do chores but I think the lessons they learn from earning and managing their own money definitely outweighs the drawbacks. Just the lessons about tithes and charity makes it worth it in my opinion. Anyway I told the kids that once they earned $10 I would take them to open a savings account and I sweetened the deal by offering to match whatever they could save dollar for dollar for one month only. When each child had earned enough we went to the bank and opened their account. It was a really great experience my banker walked the kids through the process, let them initial and sign some of the papers and praised them for starting a savings so young. Now when their statement come in we open them up and review how much interest they are earning and how much they have deposited since their last statement. Even Lily is already learning how money in her savings is worth more than money in her piggy bank. I think it means more to them because they own it. It's not an account that I started for them, that I put money in it's their account with money they earned. Every couple of months I offer incentives to save. Sometimes I match their savings, Sometimes I offer bonuses. But when they get their allowance (or paydays as they call it) they choose how much goes to save and how much goes to spend. It's a good start.<br />
<br />

Yep. Time to go get our Christmas tree!!!! YAY! Picking out the tree is one of my favorite holiday traditions. I love the tree farm we go to every year. They have pygmy goats and Santa and hot apple cider. This year it was COOOOOLD! So we pretty much picked the first tree we saw.

I was so blessed to be there when Joshua Blake was born! He stole my heart from the moment I saw him. He was born at 4:40 p.m. on October 15, 2013. He weighed 7 pounds 13 ounces and was 19 1/2 inches of sweet baby perfection!</div>

It's A.......?<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We had so much FUN throwing this gender reveal party for my daughter Donna. My sister, Becca, Donna and I all knew the sex of the baby and we decided to throw a party to reveal it to everyone else. We kept the guest list pretty small since we were having it at my house and had about 25 people there. These are the invitations that Tess and I designed. I think they turned out super cute! We printed the up on Walmart.com for pennies apiece.</div>

We have been working ALOT on our Barbie Mall. I added some pictures of some of the things we been making. Lacey painted the bookshelf, it is made from cardboard. The box on the bottom shelf is for bouncy balls.We made the strollers and Moses baskets from stroller baby shower favors that we found at the Dollar Tree. They were 3 for one dollar! I made a cushion, pillow and blanket to fit inside. The baby doll cradle was made from scrap cardboard and material. The rocking horse and little babies are also baby shower favors.</div>

Donna and Stephen got married tonight! Gosh time just flies by so fast! Yesterday she was a baby on my hip, today she is a wife! Or at least it seems that way. I'm a little in shock, I think. It happened so fast. It was a very small private ceremony. Her dad married them in the church she grew up in, with me and her grandmother and his Aunt and Uncle as witnesses. They are already headed off to their honeymoon!<br />

We have been watching lots of videos on YouTube how to make everything Barbie. It started out with a bookcase my mom gave me. Originally it was going to be a house but then we decided that we wanted it to be a mall.<br />

This is the bookcase turned on its side. Shane said he could build me 2 shelves splitting it into 4 rooms. The top is going to be a food court. I think we will put a rail on the top.<br />

This room is our pet store. The other half will be a toy store. I still have a lot to do on the pet store. It needs trim separating the printed paper from the solid paper. I'm thinking white ribbon. and I need to paint the shelf hanging on the wall and we still need to make some more cages, toys and shampoo bottles.It's coming along pretty nicely though.<br />

The rabbit cage. We have 4 rabbits but the kids took 3 off somewhere. We still need to make the water bottle but I need a straw. All of this was inspired by myfroggystuff. You can watch videos of her making everything on YouTube. Super Awesome!<br />

I am soooo ready for a break! I had to force myself to school last week. Christmas is not for school-it's to bake and cuddle on the couch and watch movies and make crafts and look at lights and go to Christmas plays and all that. We plan on taking the whole month off and not starting back until January 7. <br />

This has been our tradition since I was pregnant with Kyle. Before we go to the tree farm we drive to Marshall so the kids can ride the train. Then we go get our tree. This year was super fun. The weather was perfect not at all cold. Donna invited her fiancee and Ashley invited her boyfriend. Becca and her family followed us to the farm in Shane's truck. <br />

When we got home I cooked a big pot of spaghetti, put on some Christmas music and we decorated the tree. I had made up some puppy chow and sugared pecans and I bought some cookies so we had plenty of snacks. It was fun. We made some good memories.<br />

I'm thankful for all my blessings and for forgiveness and mercy. I'm thankful that God loves me and that He is still in control. I am so thankful for America, for freedom and for our great history. I'm thankful for the human race, I see so much selfishness and hate, pettiness, hypocrisy and racism. But I also see so much love, goodness, courage and resilience I see hope and true honor, humility and acceptance. I'm thankful I'm part of humanity. So to all my friends, family and fellow humans- Happy Thanksgiving!<br />

Pecans! Pecans!We are over loaded with pecans! Me and the kids went to my sisters house and picked up about 5 1/2 gallons of pecans. Now I gotta figure out what to do with them all. I thought I would shell them and freeze them but after shelling pecans for 3 hours I had less than 4 cups of pecans and that was me, Shane and Kyle shelling them! I really want to put a bunch in the freezer but man I'll be shelling pecans for the next 9 months at this rate. I read a suggestion that said to boil them for about 15 minutes before you shell them and that did seem to go faster. So if ANYONE knows a better way please, please let me know. It seems a shame to let them go to waste. I read that you could freeze them unshelled, I may end up doing that. Next year I want to buy a pecan sheller!<br />

</h2>
<div style="margin-top: 20px; min-height: 570px;">
<div class="KonaBody">
Because it rains when we wish it wouldn't,<br />
Because men do what they often shouldn't,<br />
Because crops fail, and plans go wrong-<br />
Some of us grumble all day long.<br />
But somehow, in spite of the care and doubt,<br />
It seems at last that things work out.<br />
<br />
Because we lose where we hoped to gain,<br />
Because we suffer a little pain,<br />
Because we must work when we'd like to play-<br />
Some of us whimper along life's way.<br />
But somehow, as day always follows the night,<br />
Most of our troubles work out all right.<br />
<br />
Because we cannot forever smile,<br />
Because we must trudge in the dust awhile,<br />
Because we think that the way is long-<br />
Some of us whimper that life's all wrong.<br />
But somehow we live and our sky grows bright,<br />
And everything seems to work out all right.<br />
<br />
So bend to your trouble and meet your care,<br />
For the clouds must break, and the sky grow fair.<br />
Let the rain come down, as it must and will,<br />
But keep on working and hoping still.<br />
For in spite of the grumblers who stand about,<br />
Somehow, it seems, all things work out. <br />
<br /></div>

I have to admit I've been a little down this week, finances are tight, war in Israel, companies closing, more people out of work and on and on and on. I know God is in control. His grace is sufficient.<br />

This has not been a great week! Shane got another pay cut, several people were laid off at his job and his hours were cut as well! We are trying so hard to stay on budget and get out of debt so this is really aggravating and frustrating I'm glad that we have our budget in place, this pay was really tight but everything was paid. I had to really tighten up our grocery budget so I bought another 10 pound bag of chicken and got 5 meals out of it! Plus I have an almost endless supply of eggs, so we are eating a lot of eggs lately, egg salad, scrambled eggs, fried eggs, and omelets. I'm getting about a quart of milk a day from Mandy so all this is helping our grocery budget. I know everything will work out but, I'm glad we are pretty much done with Christmas. I spend a lot of time looking for ways to lower our bills, I cancelled our family text plan so that saved us $30 a month and I cancelled Lily's Pre-K which saved us $15 a month. That's really all I could think to cut. I know I could get a job (maybe I could?) but I don't want to have to do that right now. I have some clothes and books I'm going to try to sell on eBay. I gotta say this though, We went to an animal auction yesterday and i seriously almost bought a horse! They sold a pretty little brown mare for $20!!! And sold her baby for $10!!! That is crazy ridiculous and it was all I could do not to buy them! Afterwards though I thought I should of gone ahead and got them I'm pretty sure I could of sold them on Craigslist for a profit. Anyway that's my report this week, hopefully next week will be better. If anyone has any ideas how to live a little more frugal please let me know.<br />

Right now we only milk her once a day on one side and we get about a quart a day. Pretty soon we will be able to take her baby off of her then we will get more milk. Here are some pictures of her.<br />
