2/2/12: Day 33

 

 

So, for those of you that don’t know – Shane and I have been working on our Total Money Makeover (Thanks Dave Ramsey).  We are Financial Peace University graduates and have been doing well with our debt reduction plan.  Today we traded in our 2008 Ford Explorer (with $8,000 still left on the loan) for this 2003 Mitsubishi Lancer.   We were able to exchange cars and pay off the loan – with no out of pocket expense!

I have decided that (because I am no where busy enough) I am going to under take a HUGE home decorating project.  Here is the start……

I am making a huge/full wall collage!  Shane estimates that it will take more than 250 photos to complete the project.
