Come Along With Me............
As I take you with me and show you what we did last week for free or super cheap :)
Our library has been offering all kinds of free events all summer long. This event was a reptile show. Super cool. We were looking forward to it. That is until, I remembered the event several hours later after the event was over- Oops :( This time it was my fault we missed the show. I am now writing the events on my calendar beside my computer. That should help me remember :)
Toys R Us had a Back to School Event that was really cool. Everything was set up in stations. You started out with a scavenger hunt through the science section. Came back and filled out an all about me page. You then moved to the Bunchem's table, where you got to build and keep a giraffe.
Then the Slime demo. You didn't get to make the slime but you got the opportunity to add glitter to it and got to take it home.
After the super fun Toys R Us event, we headed over to Gamestop. The boys and hubby's favorite store :)
Nathan had a birthday gift card and knew exactly what he wanted to get. I love going to the mall not for shopping. We walk the perimeter of the mall and get a really good walking workout :)
We came home and made the most delicious sugar cookies- mmmmm. This is all that is left from our baking adventures :)
We are still searching and hunting for Homeschool books. I have found quite a few for really awesome prices and will be doing a homeschool book haul to show you everything we got :)
We had a blast last week and it was all FREE :) We are having so much fun not spending any money :)

Eggs in a waffle maker??
You can make what in a waffle maker?
I never thought about making anything other than waffles with a waffle maker. Until, someone told me about how they make their version of an omelet and how it turned out.
I must try it out :)
We pulled out our waffle maker to discover that it was a waffle stick maker :( I'm not sure if it would work with a waffle stick maker. I thought for sure I was going to have to go out and buy a regular waffle maker. Then I saw it. We received it one year for Christmas. We used it to make waffles and it didn't do a great job :( So away in the cabinet it sat until now :)
The whole family was intrigued about this. This could be awesome or it could make a complete mess.
We whisked a dozen eggs with a few splashes of almond milk. Put in 1/2 of a cup of eggs into our waffle maker with all the toppings you want on it:
Close the lid. Start your timer for 3 minutes and Viola:
A super yummy omelet. A Death Star Omelet to be exact:) I am amazed. You can even put cheese on your eggs and it cooks right in. This is so easy. We love it and plan on making omelets as often as we can.
Did you know that you can cook eggs with your waffle maker? Now, I am curious what other things can be made with a waffle maker- hmmmmm :)
Try it out and let me know what you think :)

Come Along With Me..............
As I take you along with us and show you what we did last week :)
Our local library was having a free magic show. I was excited and signed us up to go. Well, one of the boys was having a rough day and decided not to go :( I checked the library calendar and it is packed with lots of fun free events :)
I am still searching and bidding on homeschool books. This is what I have gotten in so far:
More is coming in the mail :) I am so excited about how much money we are saving. The BJU American Republic history set retails for $179 and I picked it up on Ebay for $34.75- Win :) Apologia General Science set retails for $62 and I got it for $38 :) Math U See Beta retails for $106 and I was able to purchase it for $49 :) So excited :) The more money we save on curriculum, the more field trips we can take. I am going through Swagbucks for my Ebay purchases and am getting points that I can redeem on giftcards :) If you are unfamiliar with Swagbucks, click here. This will take you to a post I wrote all about Swagbucks.
How is your weather where you are? We have been getting hit with some pretty strong storms here almost every day. Got to love rainy season here in Florida :) Normally, we don't have any issues during rainy season but this week our power has been going on and off- not fun :(
Little Michael and I decided that we needed to make cupcakes. We had so much fun. I let him do most of the work from measuring, stirring and even pouring the batter into the liners. He did so well and the cupcakes tasted so good :)
We had a blast last week and it was all FREE :) We are having so much fun not spending any money :)

I think he got more flour on himself than in the bowl :) |
On Saturday, we went to Toys R Us for their International Day of Play Event and had so much fun. They had tables set up with games to play, coloring sheets, Nerf games, Karaoke, Pie in the face game and Nintendo Switch. The boys will tell you their favorite part was the Nintendo Switch, which is now on their birthday and Christmas wishlists :)
I can't wait to see what we come up with to do for FREE next week :)

Come Along with me.............
As I take you along and show you what we did last week.
We had an awesome week spending time as a family.
Hubby had suggested going to the beach on the 4th of July. In his mind, the beaches wouldn't be crowded as people would be traveling and hosting BBQ's. I was hoping he was right :)
Surprisingly, it wasn't crowded at all. The pavilions on the other hand were all taken and the boardwalk was crowded. No biggie. We spent all our time in the water :)
On Saturday, we visited our local library.

We all had a wonderful time even though it was crazy hot :(
We came home and soothed our sunburned skin :( Later that evening, we went outside and enjoyed a wonderful firework show right from our driveway. I am amazed at the fireworks that people in our neighborhood shoot off.
It then hit me, we are in the month of July. Eeeekkkkk!! We start our homeschool in August and I don't have any books. YIKES!!
Thankfully, I already know what books I want to use. I just have to find them at the best price possible. I went to my normal resources~ Rainbow Resource, Ebay and the actual publishers to see who had the best price. I have been lucky with several Ebay auctions and am waiting patiently for them to arrive.
I kind of feel like I am cheating on our No Spend Month. I have been using our credit card to purchase homeschool books. We have a homeschool fund in place to cover all our homeschool supplies. I am not purchasing with the intent to pay it off later, we have the money currently available for these purchases :) Purchasing homeschool supplies does curb my online shopping and I love the hunt :)
Got our books for the week, ran into a friend and chatted for a little bit :) Came home, packed our lunch and off to Toys R Us we went.
Toys R Us was having a Nerf demo. Anything Nerf gun related, my boys are there :)
Nerf gun on wheels- how cool :) |
After the demo, we went around the store and had each boy make a list of birthday wishlist ideas. Since someone's birthday is right around the corner and then we have another birthday next month as well.
And of course, we can't take little Michael to Toys R Us without him trying on a mask:
This picture is from the last TRU event we went 2 weeks ago :) Crazy kid :) |
We had a blast last week and it was all FREE :) We are having so much fun not spending any money :)
I can't wait to see what we come up with to do for FREE next week :)
How did you spend your 4th of July week? Did you do anything FREE or cheap last week?

Come Along With Me......
As I show you how our family saved money last week.
Normally, on our no spend months, temptation hits hard. Even on no spend months, I see something I want but do not have the cash for. No worry, whip out my credit card and pay it off later. That is one of the reasons we are in the financial mess we are currently in :(
For this no spend month, we enlisted help. Help from our boys. We told the boys that if mommy and daddy did not use their credit card for the whole month, that we could have pizza at the end of the month. They are so excited. Every time I get home from grocery shopping, Nathan asks me if I used my credit card. When I say No, he does a happy dance :)
Getting the boys involved has helped so much. When we go to the store and they see something they want, they normally ask if we can buy it. Now, they know that if they don't have the money and we are not using our credit card, they are fine not getting the item. They know if it is something they really want, they can put in on their birthday wishlist.
When we went grocery shopping on Saturday, we took out an extra $50. We are going to use $24 for pizza, soda, ice cream sandwiches and Cool Whip for Nathan's birthday, which is coming up soon. I will have a teenager in the house again- oh my :) We will use $23 for pizza, soda and ice cream at the end of the month.
Last week, was super easy not finding any temptation to use our credit card. Nathan and I volunteered for Vacation Bible School at our church.
VBS is such a rewarding and exhausting experience. By the time we got home, we ate a late lunch and took a well deserved nap. Then it was time to make dinner. Other than church, we didn't go anywhere or buy anything. Until Saturday. We had our huge grocery shopping adventure. That alone was tiring. We spent over $200 at 1 store. After going to 3 stores, we were done. Came home, put everything away, ate lunch and stayed put :)
Staying strong on our No Spend Adventure. I can't wait to see what is in store for the upcoming week :)

When we went grocery shopping on Saturday, we took out an extra $50. We are going to use $24 for pizza, soda, ice cream sandwiches and Cool Whip for Nathan's birthday, which is coming up soon. I will have a teenager in the house again- oh my :) We will use $23 for pizza, soda and ice cream at the end of the month.
Last week, was super easy not finding any temptation to use our credit card. Nathan and I volunteered for Vacation Bible School at our church.
VBS is such a rewarding and exhausting experience. By the time we got home, we ate a late lunch and took a well deserved nap. Then it was time to make dinner. Other than church, we didn't go anywhere or buy anything. Until Saturday. We had our huge grocery shopping adventure. That alone was tiring. We spent over $200 at 1 store. After going to 3 stores, we were done. Came home, put everything away, ate lunch and stayed put :)
Staying strong on our No Spend Adventure. I can't wait to see what is in store for the upcoming week :)
