Swagbucks for the homeschooler?

I just thought I might elaborate on how swagbucks could benefit us homeschooly moms. If for every 45 bucks you get a 5.00 Amazon gift card and you can earn up to 3 bucks a day by just searching through their search engine, then you could earn 121.66 towards anything amazon sells. Which is most curriculum, gifts, clothes and the list goes on and on. So do it now, it only takes a second to sign up with the link below.

Christmas Parade

Santa's Tree Farm

Liv & Ethan are under the weather and Maddy has had a full weekend of performances, so hopefully we will get to decorate it tomorrow.

Swagbucks Explained

Would you liked to get rewarded for searching the internet?
If you search 3 times a day and earn 3 points a day that equals 1095 a year.

A Starbucks card is 130 swagbucks. There are many giftcards, subscriptions, and prizes.

The great thing is you can have people refer under you and earn points when they search.

So please refer under me and then have your friends refer under you and we all benefit. Here is my link.

Ethan's Preschool Birthday Party #4

Ms. Shawnie gives the kids choices of Kisses, Hugs, or Spankings..
Ethan chose spankings, but chickened out when she put him over her knee and opted for kisses instead. I asked him later why he didn't get spankings and he said he didn't want everyone to see his butt ;)

Can I even tell you how much I LOVE Ms. Shawnie???
She is the BEST!!

Maddy and Livvy relived their preschool days!

And the Winner for the Christmas Card.....

After hundreds of photos, I think we found the winner.... Click on it for the full effect ;)

Yard Sale Season

Saturday I decided to see if I could sneak out sans kiddos and hit some yard sales. I was looking for Ethan & Liv clothes but found some steals on toys.

*binoculars .25

* jump rope .25

* 7 Rescue Heros & Vehicle 2.50

* Rollerblades 1.00

* And 2 free kites

So who else scored yard saleing this weekend? Maybe some Strawberry Short Cake deals..hmm??

What Would Dave Ramsey Do?

I have a couch that requires a slipcover. I paid ALOT of money for it to be made in spring of 2007. The owner of the store has had one problem and excuse after another, and finally seems willing to order my cover. It has supposedly been ordered 2 times, maybe the third will be the charm.

I now have a debt in the exact amount as the slipcover, and possibly the willingness of this lady to refund.

My couch is in tatters and I really need this slipcover...

Would Dave want me to have a beautiful new slipcover that I have been waiting 2 1/2 years for? Or should I take the money and pay off my debt?

~~~sigh~~~ I think I know.... Do you think it would be hard to make one?
