I’d heard about the game Wits & Wagers from a few sources, and it sounded interesting. I’m trying to spend more family time off-screen, and playing board games together is one of the things I’m working into the schedule a couple of times per week. The wife found this game on a half-off sale so [...]

Three weeks in, 49 more to go. I’m doing awesome! I think the weekly accountability is helpful, so I’m considering continuing with the weekly updates. I’d mentioned dropping back to monthly after kicking it off, but I think I’ve changed my mind on that point. This week is another success!

Last year we were going through some financial stress and decided we should attend Financial Peace University to learn how to take care of our problems for good. We’ve learned a lot, and met some wonderful people, and have a whole new outlook on personal (and business) finance.

Its that time again; time for the traditional “New Year resolutions” we all love to hate. We look at every piece of our lives we want to change and make a resolution to change it. We then bust our rumps to make sure we’re making those changes… for all of about two weeks. One by one [...]

Honestly this has been one of the more enjoyable Christmases I’ve had in a long time. In years past we’ve felt like we were being pulled in many directions. Our typical Christmas would be spending Christmas Eve at Cristi’s Mom’s house, and a rushed Christmas morning at home with the kids since we had to [...]
