I just wanted to mention something really helpful I found on the internet. I was going through some old magazine clippings I had saved and saw this article on budgeting. In it, was this little blurb for a website called spendingdiary.com . I tried it out and so far, really good! I just type in my expenditures for the day and it puts it on a spreadsheet! Dave Ramsey always talks about knowing how much you spend so this is going to be my little tool for doing that. Try it out. You might find it helpful too!

Family makes a birthday fun no matter what age you turn. Good thing you can't see the balloon that has "75" on it! Ha ha!

Just playing with the new camera. Five year old Kyler had to hold down the shutter. Not bad!

Lori, Rilee, and Kyler helping me to celebrate.

Color, color! Thank you to my dear family! Published with Blogger-droid v1.6.5

I had to add this poster view of the Japanese flower decoration. The colors are vibrant with this setting on my camers.

I had a knock on my door this afternoon. What a surprise! It was my visiting teachers bringing me some flowers and a Japanese decoration for my birthday! Thanks Kae and Alisha! That was really nice.

One of my visiting teachers made this for me for my birthday. It is really amazing since she did it all out of paper. I think I am loving the Japanese culture!

I listened to a really good talk that I looked up today. Click HERE to listen to Clayton L. Christensen talk about making decisions early on in life.

I had to try out the "fish eye" options on my camera. I think I need more practice...

A view out the front door. Actually it was warm today... 30 degrees.

I think I like this picture. Holdem is my son Cole's little guy. He will be moving with his mom to Ogden, UT this month. I feel sad about that but I'm sure we will see him again. Published with Blogger-droid v1.6.5

A most lovely salad bar... Lots of pizza to choose from... Dessert pizzas to boot... I picked door # 1. It was great!

Another picture of the Relief Society Presidency. We have had a great time working together (and continue to do so until the bishop thinks otherwise). Thanks ladies for your friendship and service.

Rexburg 14th Ward Presidency. Jan Wright, Nancy Meyers, Janie Fisher (President), Patty Abel. We went to lunch at Pizza Pie Cafe today. Husbands were invited but I didn't realize that. Dale was sick anyway... Maybe next time I'll get it right!

I am spending the day with grandson Holdem. As I was making carrot salad, he asked if he could have one. Of course, I love to share my veggies... He didn't eat it all, but I thought at least he likes good food. Published with Blogger-droid v1.6.5
