Fall Frenzy


We finished up Logan's first soccer season last month! He is so proud of his medal and the little trophy we got him! Way to go bud! He starts Junior Flash in January!


For Conference weekend we took a trip to Richfield. Logan helped Aunt Kenzie mow grandpa's lawn. He thinks we need a riding lawn mower!


Nathan just being his usual charming self!


We got to make sugar cookies...


And eat lots of frostin!


Logan's favorite game at grandma's is none other than....BINGO. She has a real bingo spinning wheel. He loves to call out the numbers....he plays it by himself for hours!!!


Aunt Kallie loves sugar cookies too!


Ok..so I've always thought that people who post pictures of their grocery store purchases and food storage were well....kind of dorky. I mean...who really cares how much money I spend at the store anyway...or what my pantry shelves look like for that matter. Alas I have succomed (sp?) to the pressure...I have started coupon shopping afterall! I got all of the crap you see here for a mere $55.00. I saved $126.00. I spent less than $1.00 per item! I know...impressive huh?!! Anyway...I will spare listing all of the items in the pic...even though there are some things hiding that you can't see in the picture. Anyway...I use an awesome website called Grocery Smarts! It's great...I have cut my grocery budget down to about $200 per month!

Hope everyone is having a fantastic Fall!!

Way to go on your coupon shopping! It is so much fun to save that much hu? You are lucky you live where all the stores are and they double a lot! Good luck!

I go to grocery smarts, too, but I don't really think I know the whole coupon business...maybe you need to tutor me!! Nice work!

Ok first of all, chex mix honey nut sweet and salty kind is the bomb! Second, Adam, remember when
I mowed your football field of a lawn on your riding mower and your mom got mad at you for letting me do it because I made all sorts of circles and fun lines in the grass instead of a nice looking mow job? Good times!
