We went for walks for two days in a row. We are going to have to get creative about doing fun things to not involve money. Hubby is going to get cut 25% of his income for the next 9 months so it's going to be tight. We had to drop our cable and home phone lines to save money. We still have cell phones though. The cable is the hardest thing but we kept Internet. Cannot have hubby go to school online without Internet. He is starting online classes this week. I am glad for that since I love my high speed internet and would be really sad if I couldn't visit with my online friends.

If you have any other cost saving ideas you can give them to me. I already stopped us eating out and I cook all our stuff from scratch anyway. I don't go to the salon and I cut my kids hair or in Leif's case NO cut! LOL

We walked on Saturday just hubby and I to get some groceries. It was a nice date.  I took this picture when we came home because I didn't know my flowers were popping up already. SO pretty when everything looks dead and you see these pretty little yellow flowers. So I had a date with flowers all free!

 Sunday we dragged out the plugged in kids by making them unhinge themselves from their devices and go for a walk in the park. OH the Humanity! They were mad at us at first but it was really nice to get them out for a little family time. After the walk they both were in good moods. Walking is so very therapeutic.

While walking in the woods we saw a little church set up with benches and a podium. I thought it looked precious. What was cute because was I just finishing telling my son I love to walk in the woods because I feel closer to God that way more than I do at a church. I think I might have to see if this set up actually has services and go once. I didn't see any postings. So Quaint don't you think?

 I love the trees. I was married under the trees. I wish I could live under them too.

I really needed that walk even if it was really cold. We plan to go again.

How was your weekend?
