The summer has flown by, it seems like we say this every year...but seriously, it has! Over the last month Matt and I have cracked down on our spending and have been completely devoted to our Dave Ramsey plan. It is not easy, but so exciting to think about the legacy we are starting for our family. We are gazelle intense! We have decided to sell our brand new Escape and are taking on a couple of extra jobs each as well as a roomate, our friend JP. JP will at least be a fun change:) Mostly we are excited for the journey and its outcome. We know this will be a humbling experience, but we have already seen God's provision. God is good ALL the time and all the time God is GOOD!
Becoming debt free requires a little creativity for dates which has been easy so far. We had a gift certificate to 1492 in Midtown which was a lot of fun, we had a great time at the OKC Museum of Art with free passes from Matt's sister Stacy and we won a Chili's Gift Card at Matt's Highschool Reunion which we used to eat out with friends.
That's right, it has been 10 years since Matt has graduated high school. His reunion was at Firelake Grand Casino and about 30 people came. It is always fun to think about what Matt was like in highschool and I was able to see some very interesting pics in a slideshow. We had a great time.
Finally, we inherited a dog that Matt's parents rescued. He is so sweet. He is a toy schnauzer and his name is Duke, Matt's dad named him after John Wayne:) I've never wanted an inside dog because they are smelly, germy and stink, but Duke is pretty sweet and cute.
Well that is our August in a nutshell:)
