Free Snacks

Like many others, with the rising costs of food and gas, our family is seeking to be more frugal in different areas. One of our big expenses with three boys is our grocery bill. I've been researching ways to cut back and of course save money. Snacks are a big part of our food bill, it seems like these boys can eat all day sometimes!
There is a blog that I like - Money Saving Mom where great ideas are shared along with links for coupons to match with store sales. Here is a good deal that I'll pass along.
At CVS and Walgreens, Chex mix snacks are on sale for $.99. They are usually $1.99. Then there are two links for $1.00 coupons, so the mix is FREE!! At CVS, you need to have a customer card to get the sale price, but it is well worth a few minutes to sign up.

Coupons are a great tool to save on grocery bills, but free is fabulous!

Our family is in the midst of little league soccer season. My youngest son is playing and his enthusiasm is contagious. He is pretty good at the sport, but what makes it so great is that he loves it! He counts the days until the next game or practice. He loves his coach and teammates. He has moved up an age level this year and the players are working more like team, passing to each other and watching out for each other during play. During the last game, my son scored two goals, they were the only goals of the game. In today's game the team scored eight goals. My son came up afterwards to me and said, "I didn't score today, but I blocked". What a powerful truth those words can hold. In life, sometimes we score, sometimes we block. Sometimes we do great things, we excel, we achieve, we meet our goal - we score! There are also times we see the needs of others, sometimes they are sad or hurting, we block their hits. We look out for them so they can score. We

Relationships and Redemption

In every friendship or relationship, there is a common hope that they will grow and flourish. There is something inside of us that longs for a 'happy every after' story. We dream about it and work to make that happen. But in reality, relationships are a challenge. The bridging of values, lifestyles, interests and sacrificing for another are simply hard things to do! No matter how much we dream of the perfect fit, some relationships will not endure the stress.  When differences appear and tensions arise, prayer can change situations, attitudes and ourselves. For the Christian, we know God can transform, change, heal. We cannot change others, but prayer opens us the door for God to step in and answer. God desires transformation, but does not demand it. The gift of free will allows us to choose to say Yes or No to Him.  Romans 12:18 says, “If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all.” Take notice of the first two words: “If possible …” This implies that some
