Got my last $5.00 rebate check from sc johnson today.
Spent $15.80 at shoprite and picked up another free turkey.

I cooked up 2 of the pumpkins we grew this season to use for pumpkin pie.

Made macaroni and cheese out of the odd pieces of cheese in the fridge and leftover cheese from making cheese fries. The macaroni was free after coupon (from this summer). Turned out pretty good.

I still have freezer space after bringing home 2 turkeys!!!!!
I actually have freezer space!
This is a wonderful thing and I have all of you to thank so Thanks!

I just stopped typing to go look at the space in the freezer again. Then I called the boys to show them. Now they're fighting over the orange hat.

Ds informed he doesn't need diapers any more. I am surprised that he is pretty much potty trained in a week. Was not even expecting this to go so fast. Dd took forever but I think I tried to start too early with her. We went to Bass Pro Shop last night for 3 hours with ds in underwear and he stayed dry. I am going to save so much money not buying diapers and pull ups!

My momma's birthday is today (42). Yes she had me young. I'm going to dig through my stockpile and make her a nice gift bag from all the glade candles, make up and body wash, etc. She's a girly girl so she'll love it.

Now to go get some caffeine in me. I'm teaching the preschool Sunday school class this morning. Pray for me!
