Birthday Freebies

Yes, Shiloh's birthday is still 4 months away with Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas between now and then. Yes, I am already obsessed with where we will have it this year. I am having absolutely NO luck finding an affordable (cheap) and approriate place to have a 2 year olds birthday party.

However, I have found some awesome birthday freebies!!!

My Three Favorites are:

1. Toys R Us looks like it will be my favorite. Register your child's birthday and you will get a 10% off coupon for the month leading up to his/her birthday and THEN your child will get their very own card and gift (I hear it is a $5 gift certificate) from Geoffrey on their birthday!

2. If you register your child at Sonic.com, they will get a coupon for a free kids meal the month of their birthday. Register yourself too as an adult and you'll get a special treat on your birthday as well (though I am not sure what)!

3. The Childrens Place will send you a 15% off coupon for use during your child's birthday month. Who doesn't need a new birthday outfit?

Well back to my search for a party place. If you have any affordable (cheap) and appropriate ideas, please let me know!

  1. I got a $3 gift certificate from Toys R Us, which is still sort of fun because you can take your child and let him/her choose a small toy. :)

    Corky's has a kids club and you get a free t-shirt for joining and a free kids meal on the month of your child's birthday, which is nice.

Carnival Cruise Tips for Families

Our family just returned from an 8 day cruise on the Carnival Horizon. While I and my husband have cruised before (many years ago), this was our first cruise with the kids and it was different. I have several friends that are planning or wanting to go on a cruise, so I thought I would write a little bit about our experience, in hopes that it will help someone else with their planning.  If their is interest in any certain area, I will gladly make another post that goes more in depth on that subject. BEFORE YOU GO 1. Unless you live in Florida (or near another port) and don't mind taking a 3 day cruise on the fly, book well in advance. The fairs are cheaper, you have longer to pay and you will have your pick of dining times and excursions. You can also just pay the deposit now and have until 90-75 days before your cruise to finish paying it off. 2. Social Media is your friend. Go ahead and find out who your cruise director will be and follow him on social media. He/She wi

6 Ways to Love on.....Everyone. And a rebuttal.

I don't normally post religious things.  I find my own personal take on religion to be.....quirky at time.  However, I recently saw an article floating around the web that was written by what I assume is a 20 something single lady.  It was how she felt single women need to be loved on by married persons in a church congregation.  You can read it here . I found parts of the article to be sound theory and spot on, while other parts were, shall we say misguided.  By the end of the article, I was also thinking, why are there so many separate "groups" in a church and how we all need to be loved on, not just one group.  So here is my humble rebuttal (based on my life and experiences) and also a simple blue print on how you can love on anyone in your church congregation....or anyone in the world. In response to “Six ways to Love Single Women:"               1.   Words are hurtful.  People should choose their words carefully, I agree.  God has many reasons for not

If I ignore it....

....will it go away? Today is just one of those days when everything hits me all at once: The stress of our situation and uncertainty of what is to come, the worries of money and how we will survive, and the feeling disconnected from the world. Day in and day out, I try to look at the bright side and hope and pray for the best. I do research to affirm where we stand and the likliness of a good outcome. I have thrown everything I have into finding ways to make and save money, telling myself it will make a difference. I never stop racking my brain. However, I never seem to shake the feeling of being disconnected from the world. My only social outlet is work, and being that, is limited. I seem to have very little in common with the people who are easily accessible to me outside of my family, and very little time for those with which I can relate. I crave something creative...to paint, photograph, write, but by the end of the night, when I alot my self some time, I am too mentally tired
