MOOLALA & other money-saving sites

A new money-saving site that brings you big discounts AND opportunites to make money! Join me by CLICKING HERE & then inviting your friends to start saving too! 


I'm just getting started but so far, so good. And it only takes a second to sign-up so I figured, why not?! 

Also, here is an article that may inspire you to get on board with Moolala!

Another interesting fact about Moolala: Moolala was started by a couple who were formerly medical missionaries.

Also if you haven't checked out GROUPON you should! I used groupon to get a great gift for a friend, a massage, for very cheap!

Also, my newest favorite money-saving blogger can be found at The Simple Dollar. Thanks to my mom who turned me on to this great resource for money-saving tips and ideas.

Contests!

Okay, update time! We are currently in the lead with 410 votes!! Our friends REALLY came through for us! We want to say a BIG thank you! The picture with the next highest amount has 162 votes right now....so we are hopeful but we're not "counting our eggs 'til they hatch!" The contest ends Feb. 9th....hoping we hang on to our strong lead!

Now, I have TWO other friends who are currently in contests very similar to ours. Would you take a minute (literally, it'll only take you a minute!) and help them win? Pretty please?


First, Josh & Sarah Curry are in a contest with "bridal shoes" that ends this Friday, Feb. 4th. If you would please head over to facebook and vote for them by clicking "like" on Contrast Images' page. Then  go to their picture, the awesome white chucks, and leave a comment....any comment! Then you will have voted to help them win a free oversized print of their choice for their home :) What a great gift for newly weds?!





Second, my friend Lynn over at "Musings of a Monster Mommy" has entered her little "Monster J" into a "cutest kids" contest also on facebook. To vote for her & the adorable Monster J head over to Loving Memories Photography's page and vote for Monster J's picture by just clicking "like" (unlike the one above you do NOT have to leave a comment unless you want to).


 ....thanks again for voting for us AND also for going to help out our friends! :D

Last but definitely not least...I would like to say thanks to God for my friend Natali making it safely to MALI! I've blogged about her before, but you can catch up if you don't know about her at her blog called "Here I go". She is truly on fire for the Lord & is giving the year 2011 to Him by serving and sharing the Gospel with those in Mali. Straight out of college at ECU & off to serve...I am proud of her :) & I feel blessed because God allowed us to meet during our time at Pitt Community College! 

I hope everyone had a great weekend...and that you also have a great week!

Lately...

...I haven't sat down to write a lot. But I'm still here, and want to share random things like this. I promise it's worth the 10 seconds to get the LAUGH!!

1. Go to Google Maps and click on Get Directions.
2. Write USA as your start point.
3. Write Japan as your destination.
4. Go to the 31st point on your route.......and when you stop laughing, feel free share this so that others can laugh at it, too. :)
 
The end.
P.S. Jesus loves you.

Just thought I would share the laugh. :)

Better go put some cream on it...while you are still young! haha!!

Last one!

I just started my LAST semester of college.

I will be DONE with my bachelor's degree in about 4 months!

Wow-weeeee.

Me and my husband both will be done actually.

I'm quite excited/nervous/proud/anxious/happy....about this and the future.


This summer is already filling up fast:

  • We have to find jobs! 
    • A youth ministry position for Joe (waiting on God to open doors) and who knows what for me!
  • We are going to Mexico on a mission trip in June (with my whole family & our church).
  • We will probably work a week of camp at the end of June/beginning of July...maybe another in August.
  • We have a niece or nephew being born in early July!
**UPDATE: This last one didn't happen, but we're okay with that:
  • And....we are traveling...some where OUT of the country 
    • (yippeee!! for an awesome wedding gift!)
    • When, where and for how long is yet TBD.



Okay so...that's all for now. That was just a brain dump that really needed to happen.

Now I'm watching a random movie while I wait on Joe to come home from bball practice so we can spend the evening together.   :)

One more thing, I LOVE being married. I LOVE my husband.
I'm so very, very happy.
