So life has been busy! Scott and I took an awesome trip to Utah for 10 days in March to visit some of our friends and family :) It was so fun to get away for awhile. We mostly just relaxed and ate a whole lot of yummy food! I just love being with my husband, it doesn't matter where we are. He is my favorite. :) While we were there I took some pics for one of my good friends Elizabeth and her amazing family. She has the cutest little boys ever! I love them. (Pics on my other blog)
So here is an update on life since my last post...
All in March I became the new Assistant Manager at Cafe Yumm!, Found out I have Hypothyroidism, which basically means my thyroid doesn't function that well so I have to take a little pill everyday to make up for that. It's nothing serious, just annoying. :) , and finally, Scott and I decided to pay off all our debt in hopefully a year. So we made our monthly budget last night and are going to stick to it. It's amazing looking at where all our money goes and it's really sad at how much money we waste. Scott and I are not big spenders to begin with, I for one hate to shop...so I know we can do it! :) I am so excited to not have any debt. In the last couple weeks we paid off all our credit cards! We no longer have to worry about those. Now on to school loans and paying off our new car. I know it's not going to be easy but if we stick strictly to our budget then we can get about 80% to 90% of our debt paid off in a year and then we get to buy a HOUSE! I am super stoked! and then kids will hopefully come into the mix. We really want to be financially stable before we have children. I want to be a stay at home mom and not having to worry about money. I want my kids to have the best start and all the attention they deserve.... and I want kids so badly! I want to be a mom more then anything :) I know we can do this! I can't imagine only having a house payment every month, it's going to be so nice. I love my husband and all he does for me. He wants to make our future the best it can be and this is the first step and sets the foundation for the rest of our lives. Here's to being grown ups and having a life plan. IT FEELS GREAT! :)
