Sorry for the lapse in posts, it has been a little hectic around here as I am sure it has been for all of you. We are trying to get the boys ready for school. Football is already going strong with two wins under their belt.
We had meet the teacher for Big T and I have some reservations about his group this year. I will be sending up prayers for everyone going back to school this year.
I have big hopes for my boys and their future as I am sure all parents do.
Picked up school supplies and some new shoes for the boys. I used my "school" envelope money for school supplies and school fees so that these things did not derail our budget. I used our "clothing" envelope money to pay for shoes so they did not derail our budget either. If you are doing the envelope system and have children I recommend you add these two to your envelope categories. I use the school money for their lunches through the year and for field trips.
I budget a certain amount for these envelopes through the year and I do not pause during the Summer. Using the school envelope is how I am able to cover school supplies with no problems. I am still adding money but nothing is coming out for those three months, my school money is gaining momentum through the Summer.
I honestly do not know what I would do without my envelopes, especially in our current situation.
This week is going to be crazy; the kids start school, I have an interview, and the hubbs continues to look for his new career. Hold on to something it is going to get bumpy. Oh, and did I forget to mention Sprat will be driving himself to school in a week.

No pictures this morning, I will have to do day two of school pictures for the boys tomorrow. The hubbs and I enjoyed our annual first day of school breakfast date too.
