Living a FRUGAL life
My husband and I have decided we really need to start living frugally. We aren't big spenders, and aside from my husband's truck loan, we have NO debt, so we are doing pretty well. However, we need to try to SAVE more money and build up on our savings. We plan to buy a house soon, it will be our first. Not only do we need to save up for a down payment and closing costs, but I still want to have money left over. Emergency funds are so important! We also need to get used to having less money each month because we'll have a mortgage to pay. We are currently living in a home owned by Keep reading...

Waipi’o Ridge Stables – Horseback on the Big Island of Hawaii
If you are planning to visit the Big Island of Hawaii, there is one place on the Island that you MUST see. In my opinion, it is the most BEAUTIFUL spot on the Big Island, and not to be missed. Waipi'o Valley, the "Valley of the Kings" lies on the northern end of the Big Island. From the lookout you'll be able to see magnificent views of the valley below including taro patches and a black sand beach. Although the valley is only accessible with 4-wheel drive vehicles, you can always hike down if you really want to explore! Let me warn you though, the hike is strenuous! Once in the Keep reading...
ShowNo Towel GIVEAWAY & Review
I came across a great towel, that is perfect for the beach, pool, or even after bath time. It's called a ShowNo towel, and as the website states, it really is the "Ultimate kids 3 in 1 towel".The ShowNo towel drapes right over your childs shoulders like a poncho, so they can wear it to and from the beach or pool rather then having to carry it. It's also easy to put on and take off. Time to dry off? Have your kid slip the ShowNo on, and drying up is a breeze! Time to change out of their wet swim clothes? It's simple with the ShowNo, they can get their clothes changed with the Showno on! Keep reading...
