Couponing!

So, life has been pretty much the same as usual...great and semi-busy! We are looking forward to our Vegas trip getting closer and closer. We will be getting on the plane before we know it! I can not remember the last time I was on such a long vacation (8 days/7 nights)...I will be great! I just hope the jet lag isn't too bad...but we are getting home around 10 (I think) Saturday night and we plan to sleep lots on Sunday to get ourselves back to normal before Monday.

Here is an update on some couponing today! I am very excited, we hadn't gone on a good grocery shopping trip in a while, and it is always a rush to see how much we save from our coupons!
