About me

Introduction From our 2014 family mission statement: As a family we love to be around others, have a plan, and stay active. We strive for balance and try to prevent being overworked and underplayed. We would rather be spending time with each other going to the beach or lake, singing with others, occasionally going out to eat, working on a project together. We help others by volunteering, fundraising, making meals, watching children, caring for grandparents. We want to be known as a family that affects change that reflects God's values, is generous, is caring, and values the important things. We want our children to own and live out these values. We strive to fill our home with joy in all circumstances. We make choices and decisions based on love, justice, righteousness and we believe that “Love does.”
Interests 10 ways to save a buck and keep some "doe": 1. Eat less. 2. Cut the boys' hair yourself. 3. Be creative with leftovers. 4. Color your own hair every 2 weeks to make your hair appointments more spread out (that's what I've heard anyway:-)) 5. Combine your errands to save gas. 6. Drive your paid-for car until it falls apart. 7. Buy used goods (clothing, toys, dishes, appliances) whenever possible. 8. Stay out of the discount stores and clearance aisles unless you have a list of things you really need. 9. Plan ahead for meals to avoid spontaneous eating out. 10.Negotiate a lower price.
