Deal Alert!!!

I love that now so many people are now into the coupon clipping. My customers love to tell me where they get the best deal and I just soak it all in :) Here is one:

Does Anyone have A Buzz Lightyear fan? or a fan of games? Heck how about a momma that wants a gift you don't have to pay an arm and a leg for? Drew isn't necessarily a fan, but I got it for him anyway (not sure if we are giving it to him for Easter or saving for his Birthday in December)



Here is the deal...
It's Buzz Lightyear Operation (Retail value $14.99-$21.99) on sale at Stateline Walmart for $5.

With this deal you don't even have to drive to Post Falls to do this, just let me know if you want it and I can purchase it for you.

Then I will Go to coupons.com to print you $3.00 Off coupon. (which means you get a $15.00 game for $2.30 with Tax) PLUS...

After the purchase you go to hasbro.com and print your mail in form for your free pizza (up to $7.01 value)

So in turns you get pizza and a game for free :)

Let me know if you are interested ASAP (there are about 10 games left).

Random Facts...

- Today Mike and I took Drew to meet Greg Biffle. Most of you don't know and/ or care who that is, but I am going to tell you anyway :). He is a NASCAR Sprint Cup Driver AKA Big Time Race Car Driver!! I still remember Chad Little (NASCAR driver from the 1980-90's) So I felt it necessary to give Drew the same experience. Oh yeah and he loved it, He brought a picture to be signed and hardly would let it go, he also got a picture taken with him.




- I am kinda starting to get some morning sickness... so far it's more in the evening and brushing my teeth. Could be worse, and well honestly I am kinda expecting worse, so if I only end up with this I will be just fine.

- Still have made little to no progress in my spring cleaning goals or even my wedding/ bridal thank yous. Feel really guilty about it, but still eventually they will get done.

- Finally starting to get 30+ hours at work, which is nice. We are going to really work on getting as much of our debt paid off before baby b gets here.

- I know 14-15 people pregnant all due between May and December. Most of them are from work, 9 to be exact, I just wish most of them were due sooner rather than later so I can get my baby fix :).

- It's official Charlotte refuses to say my name, or any form of my name. She is now the second one of my nieces/ nephew to say Mike's name before mine. Last week I had bought Drew a few shirts at work so Mike and I stopped to drop them off, he stayed in the car as we were in a hurry to get somewhere. As Dana and I were chatting on her way to the mailbox, Charlotte started yelling "MI, MI, MI" and I replied "bye, bye" thinking that is what she was saying, when I realized she caught a glimpse of Mike. She was saying Mike not BYE! GRRRR I knew he was by far her favorite, but even today we were scrolling through pictures and she named almost everyone except me and Pee-paw (who she called Mike). She even say Boboly (Brodey)... I will get over it when the baby says MOMMA first (Fingers and Toes crossed :)

- Everyone Knows I love my free stuff (as Does Dana & Yes her glasses are really cool, I am jealous being I need new ones and would actually wear them :) I know that "my" Walmart is out of the way of most of you, but if you are ever in the Stateline area and need clothes for your selves or kiddos we 3/4 of the time have a rack or 2 for $1 or $5. I get lots of good deals there, especially after holidays...

- Also I have talked to a few of you about the coupon clipping thing (which I am getting pretty good at) Last week Mike and I got 3 boxes of cereal, 3 boxes of pop tarts and 2 gallons of milk for $6. Yes $6 that is a savings of almost $30!!! I am willing to teach all those interested in how to do this, Unlike the class that is charging $20 (per person), I will do it for free. I am waiting for final confirmation for Walmart in Ponderay if they will honor Ads from stores in Coeur D Alene. Once you get the hang of it, you will be amazed at how much money you can save :)

- Mike and I have been talking about possibly looking for another church, not that we don't love the one we are in, we just feel like we need to meet more people down here and it is very hard to do in a little church. We don't have many close friends anymore as moving away from everyone has made it very difficult to keep strong relationships. Don't get me wrong we have our friends (which we never see) and A.J. And Dana, but we also need more friends. Oh well I guess when the time is right we will meet more people.

- God has been so good to us, we are truly blessed.

- Baby is 10 weeks (and some odd days), only 10 more weeks before we can find out if Baby B is going to be the cutest little girl in orange or the cutest little boy in Orange :) and Yes you heard right Orange is my favorite color and I plan to dress my baby in orange no matter the sex :) BTW: I did buy a SUPER cute Orange and white outfit with Monkey's (which also happen to be my favorite :)

- Micah Officially got a job!! Yeah for us and getting some extra money for Bills (we raised his portion of rent since he is not in school).

- Racing season is officially upon us, The Late Model is not done yet, but we do have another month. Wednesday Night Fever AKA White Trash Wednesdays has been cancelled the past 2 weeks :( oh well, maybe next week.

- Tonight was leftovers / cereal night for dinner. Which is my version of I am too tired to make dinner and there are not enough leftovers for 2 so Mike eats left overs and I eat cereal (which is better than popcorn - I think ) My husband is so good on days like today when i don't want to make dinner :).

- Get to hear the baby's heart beat Friday, totally will be awesome.

- That's all for now...

Ten on Thursday

1. Change is good.

2. I have been so stinking sick, and I can't even blame it on morning sickness. I have had a flu, a sinus infection and horrible headaches (I even resorted to using my battery over the last week. Which makes me a little sad since I haven't even used it since December 2009 :(

3. I am in a spring cleaning mood, although I don't ever have the time or energy to do it. Eventually I will and I plan to have many yard sales.

4. I am a procrastinator! Sadly I haven't even done my shower/ wedding thank yous :(. Honestly I can't even find my lists or the cards(partly why I want to do spring cleaning). So for those of you wondering if I forgot your thank you, no I didn't and you will get one I PROMISE.

5. It seems like when one thing goes wrong, everything else seems to follow.

6. Mike & I are learning the hard life lessons of bills and how the stress can affect our bodies.

7. We also know everything will work out and God is in control. (Although Mike proposed that we start buying diapers soon since we know it's going to be more expensive with a baby. Too Funny, but possibly a good idea)

8. Had an ultrasound last week. Baby AKA the blob looks like well a blob, but Dr. said all looks good. Heart beat was 150/bpm.

9. At my last appointment the Dr. was going through all the options for genetic testing and screenings. I politely (me polite?) interrupted and explained to her that God is in control and this baby is a gift from him and we are up for whatever because we completely trust him. Mike seemed a little embarrassed, but the Dr. replied, "good for you, I am not sure I have ever heard someone say they trust God that much." I told her the story of Lilli Bug and told her what a miracle she is. To which she replied "what an amazing story, you have a very strong faith in God." (little does she know it's not that strong, I just know he is in control and knows exactly what we can handle :)

10. Mom says its a boy. Mikes Grandma says its a boy (she had a dream). Mike really wants a boy. I have always wanted a girl, but amazingly I could care less about the sex. I will settle for Healthy and will be happy no matter the sex.

Bonus: Race car is coming along, body is almost mounted! I am still fighting for my Orange, but Uncle Brad gets final say. I am pretty sure I have him convinced to stay with Orange :)
