Hi Everyone! Happy 1st day of Spring! Here in MI we are all crying because there is snow everywhere and no sign of spring to be seen. Wah, Wah. But! WE can enjoy the sunshine and pretend it’s warm outside and crank the heat inside, right?! haha I am enjoying a cup of cocoa as I type and dream of warmer days ahead!

 

I came across this adorable outfit on pinterest and thought I would share. I would love to look this adorable everyday, but it’s just not going to happen. I think I might replace the heels with flats and then how cute would this be to grab lunch with your girlfriends or date with your sweetie? I LOVE green and I am working on these thin little legs too! 😉 Spin class has been kicking my butt, but I love seeing the results! I am going to treat myself to a little JCREW in the months ahead! Nothing crazy as we are choosing to spend our money wisely, but little rewards are always a great incentive:)

 

 

Ok…onto some things I am loving!

 

mint.com  Soo….I heard of this long ago, but my local bank was not associated with it. I called them up and they helped me get on board! This is FREE and such a great resource for tracking your spending! Was this ever an eye opener for me! Micah is certainly the saver and I am the spender! I am proud of myself for choosing to be more conscious of my spending and saving more! YAY! The biggest lesson I have learned is that I waste too much money on little things and that really adds up! Now I decide if it’s really worth it! It frees up more money for things that are really important to me! Win.Win.

Anything from this site! I Really want the cookbook, too! I am going to host a gathering like this this summer! Pinky Swear! It’s GOING to happen!

 

I just picked up this book today! I have heard nothing but great things and can’t wait to read it! If you have read it and want to share your thoughts…please do! I will also be checking back in after I read it:) There are soo many books on my list to read at the moment! *I should also add that I bought the audio version. I just remembered that! oops! I love to listen to books while I edit and my husband has a long commute so he gets to listen and drive so it works well for us!

 

Ok, guys! I have to get dinner on the table and boys go to youth group tonight! I hope you all enjoy the rest of your week! I will be back with more pretty images to share soon!
