French Heritage

My husband is part french, part german, part caucasian and part american-indian. His dad still speaks fluent french and every now and then he would teach me a word or two. Words like abri de piscine, fauteuil baroque, and domiciliation. I don't remember now what those words meant but I like it when he talks french.

I hope my kids will learn some of the language. Andrea is better than me because she knows a little bit. They teach it at her school and she's picking up some of the words. We all know that knowing how to speak more than one language is better than just one. So I will do my best to make my kids multi-lingual so they would have an edge over others. 

Dream Wedding

It is our wedding anniversary next week and although it's been years since we got married, I could still remember it like it was yesterday. We had a simple church wedding but to me it was my dream wedding. Our motiff was yellow and we had yellow tulips at church and yellow bouqette. The food was simple yet everybody had so much fun and even after we left for our honeymoon, they still continued to party.

Every girl has their dream wedding. There are winter wedding themes, snowflake wedding theme, fairytale theme and others like beach themes. Whatever it is that a girl chooses, it is important that the person she get's married to is her true love because a wedding is not just about decorations and themes but it's all about the union of two people in-love. The ceremony is the most important part of the wedding and the decorations are just icing on the cake.

Insurance in Connecticut

Insurance is very important. I myself have been a witness to it's importance when our house got flooded a couple of month ago. Our furnitures have been totally destroyed and our house suffered from water damage. Thanks to our insurance, we were able to fix our house and were able to get money to replace our furnitures.

We are planning on moving to Connecticut soon and we are making sure that we will get the best insurance. I searched for Homeowners Insurance Somers, CT online and I found that Paradiso Insurance Agency offers it as well as Life Insurance Somers, CT. They offer all kinds of insurance and very cheap premiums so if you're looking for Life Insurance Tolland, CT, then I recommend them to you.

Before moving there, I will contact them and make sure that everything will be alright. It's always nice to be ready because you will never know when disaster strucks.

Baby Slings

My sister in law just gave birth to her third child last month. She gave birth to a healthy baby boy via c-section. I am very honored when she told me that I will be the baby's godmother. My husband has been her 1st child's godfather and now I will be the her only son's godmother.

I am looking for a nice baptismal present online when I remembered that one of the best gifts to give would be baby slings. There's a site online that specializes in all kinds of baby slings in all designs and colors. I never realized that there are different kinds of slings until I saw it at lastellablu.com. They offer all kinds of awesome designs that I could not make my mind which one to get.

The baptism would be next weekend so I have to hurry and order it. I hope that my sister-in-law would appreciate the gift and moreso, that she would be able to use it to it's full capacity. As a mom myself, baby slings has been very helpful to me while my babies are growing up.

All Kinds Of Invitations

I like to prepare for a party way in advance and I make sure I put all kinds of effort in every aspect of it. Since Andrea's birthday is coming up soon, I am already checking out party invitations for her. I found this site that prints, designs and makes birthday inviations, business cards and discount wedding invitations.

I used it for Fifi's 1st birthday invitation and everybody liked it. It is very cheap and I love how it all came out. Since Andrea is older, I will let her choose which invitation she wants to send out from all the different designs that they have. I believe that she will enjoy her party more if I let her get involved in the planning.

Printer Problems

I use our printer in all kinds of projects. When I pay our bills online, I have to print a receipt for our records. If I want to scan a picture for my blog, I use our printer which is also a scanner. If I need to print some pictures, I also use our printer since it's also a picture printer. With this amount of printing, we use a good amount of Brother Printer Ink Cartridges. In my estimation, we change printer ink every 2 months or less.

I was a little pissed though when I tried to use it last week for Andrea's project. I want to print some pictures for her project and it won't print at all... I though it was low on ink so I bought new ones and replaced the old ink. Still it won't print. Hubby finally checked it when I started to mumble and he said our printer broke. Ugghhh... It sucks... Now we have to buy a new printer and we have to set aside a budget for a new printer.

Financial Savior

There are times when we need extra money and my husband's paycheck has not arrived yet. It is very stressing when that happens and sometimes, it's not even planned. Before we would use credit cards everytime oopsies happen but now, we decided to cut off our cards and do payday loans instead. It helps us in times of oopsies and when my husband gets paid, we just pay it off. It's easy to pay-off and we don't need to worry about paying a monthly bill for it like a credit card.

We barely do any payday loan but if the situation calls for it, we just make adjustments on our budget that way we don't dig a financial hole for our family. We are striving to be debt-free in 3 years more or less and we know that when that time comes, our family will have more extra to spend on vacations and more money in our savings.
