I’m a homeschooling mom, which means I love, love, love taking my kids on homeschool field trips. There’s just one little teeny tiny problem: It’s expensive! I’ve found lots of really great frugal field trip places in Atlanta that we’ve visited often, but other than those, it can be tough to afford really educational outings,Keep Reading…
I love shopping for my kids’ room. But – let’s be real: I’m not made of money! So I’m always searching for the absolute best bargains I can find for kids’ furniture, decor, and toys. And that’s just one of the reasons why I love Groupon! I can get awesome bargains without having to buyKeep Reading…
I love shopping at Groupon. I get awesome deals on local entertainment, restaurants, classes for my kids, and more! Depending on the time of year, I can even snag some great vacation deals, which is always helpful when you’re trying to take a family vacation with kids, right? But now there’s another way to saveKeep Reading…
Ah…spring cleaning. To quote a song from an episode of Rocko’s Modern Life, “It’s a sick, disgusting job, but it’s gotta get done!” Pretty much. I hate cleaning, which is one reason why I outsource most of our housework to my kids. But I generally get excited about the idea of spring cleaning. The actual chore, though,Keep Reading…
Spring is nearly here, which means that spring cleaning is nearly here. I’m not a fan of housework, but I love spring cleaning. The weather is warming, the air is fresher, and it’s a great time to declutter and simplify. I’ve been decluttering my house for the past month and it’s starting to look…somewhat like aKeep Reading…
Is laundry taking over your house? If it is, you have my utmost sympathies. I can stay on top of just about everything in my life…except laundry. For some reason, it just seemed to pile up higher and higher until I was reduced to scrounging around in the bottom of the dresser to find somethingKeep Reading…
My husband and I have not had a home phone line in nearly seven years. So it goes without saying that our mobile phone service is super important. Unfortunately, it was also super expensive – especially on our budget. I started seriously looking at our bills a couple of months back and one of theKeep Reading…
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of eBookArrow.com. All opinions are 100% mine. There aren’t many things I love in this world. But books are near the top of my list – the very top of my list. I bought an Amazon Kindle way back in 2011 and that thing hasKeep Reading…

My husband and I set our grocery budget at $500 a month. The only issue is: we have four children. 🙂 So every month, I work hard to make sure we can get our groceries for $500 or less (preferably less). As homeschoolers living on one income, we simply cannot afford to eat out often.Keep Reading…
Hi everyone! Welcome to another edition of Family Fun Friday! We loved last week’s posts and we’ve picked our favorites to share with you all today! I also wanted to share a simple decluttering plan that I’m doing in 2015: Declutter 52! As a mom with ADHD, it doesn’t take much for me to getKeep Reading…
We live in Georgia, so it always takes a little while for fall to actually reach us down here. But we’re having highs in the low 70s and the leaves are changing (finally), so I’m excited to share in the fall edition of the Seasonal Skirts linkup! We’ve already shared our favorite skirts for spring andKeep Reading…
Confession time: I am a fabric hoarder. I bought several yards of home decor fabric a couple of years ago with the intention of making DIY bedroom curtains for the kids’ rooms and…the fabric just sat there and sat there. Part of me was afraid that I’d mess up the fabric and I’d never beKeep Reading…
Do you have a bunch of old candle jars just sitting around the house? Turns out – you can actually get some use out of them after your candles melt! We had several candle jars that we’d already used, but the jars were so well made that I hated to throw them out. Pinterest toKeep Reading…
