Credit card reward point question…

By Bree, on April 23rd, 2012%

Have a question for you that do ‘reward’ type credit cards or some reward buying system. Do you find one card or agency provides better perks than another? What I mean is, we used to use a certain brand and get anywhere from $200 to $400 in gift cards as our rewards. Then the point system changed and the reward point requirement increased…meaning our ‘reward’ was essentially less. If we had 5,000 points we may have gotten $50 in a gift card (or something like . . . → Read More: Credit card reward point question…

Self Invested

By Bree, on April 17th, 2012%

There are a ton of things we do for the betterment of ourselves. We enter giveaways, we work out, we take school classes, we tan and we invest…in a lot of things. Some investments mean more than others, some gain more or less or are less aggressive as others. Whatever we do though we want to see gain so we can enjoy the ‘labor’ of that task. I came across SIPPS, which allows you to make decisions about future retirement plans and wanted to share.

Party with the Genie/Barbie

By Bree, on March 20th, 2012%

I am very excited about my daughter’s birthday party this year. Rarely do we do anything super big and the last 2 or 3 years we have even combined her party with her dance recitals so that sort of ended up a big deal. This year we have a pink castle bounce house coming and I decided how cool it would be to give her the options of being a princess as well. The problem came in picking a costume that would allow her to . . . → Read More: Party with the Genie/Barbie

Fillin’ some kitchen space

By Bree, on February 15th, 2012%

I mentioned previously we found a new house so now it’s time to re-arrange and furnish some new spots. I feel I have watched so many home shows that I can re-do my home with what is already in it. It’s all in the staging right .

I have on odd area that I am do not know what to do with it; it’s my kitchen. There is a small room right next to the kitchen for a dinner area yet a decent amount of floor space . . . → Read More: Fillin’ some kitchen space

We’re moving…

By Bree, on January 13th, 2012%

I love moving. I know crazy right!? I grew up moving, my dad was in the Navy so I developed it as my normal. While I desire to move less and less as an adult with kids I still enjoy the process. I appreciate cleaning out the excess that just seems to accumulate and I really enjoy the decorating process in a new place. It is like my stuff is sort of new to be as it’s seen a little different on a new wall and . . . → Read More: We’re moving…

Redeeming the time!

By Bree, on November 16th, 2011%

A LONG time ago I used to do posts about how to redeem your time (or really it was a reminder for me, but I shared…so nice of me right). Our time is very valuable and really shrinking in terms of upcoming responsibilities and what to do first, what to put aside and what to ‘forget’. If we always knew ahead of time what was really important I am sure some things would provoke a different response but we can only do the best we . . . → Read More: Redeeming the time!

What couch doesn’t stain?

By Bree, on September 26th, 2011%

I am really asking this odd question to my blogging buddies. What can of couches (the material) repels stains better? I have a microfiber tan couch and loved it when it was new but after two babies there are some spots on the couch that aren’t my friend. I have tried using a stain remover and I thought it was stain guarded but now I wonder. And, it got me to thinking what kind of couch is more durable yet still fashionable? Any clues?
