Grandpa Grant

My grandpa's funeral is tomorrow and I was asked to mention some memories of my grandpa. So all week I have been thinking of grandpa. Now, my memory is horrible, I can barely remember yesterday, but I do have a few memories.

One day when I was about 10, I had met a friend's grandpa and I thought he was really creepy. So later that day, I was the only one home and the phone rang. It was this creepy grandpa! So I hung up, he called back, so I hung up... this went on for a few more times. Well, you know where this is going, and yup, it was MY grandpa! Oops, sorry!

I hope I can always hear in my memory him saying, "Well hello there Angelic!" It is one of my favorite memories/associations with my grandpa.

AND... Look at that great smile!

Love ya grandpa, we'll miss you! Give grandma a great big hug for us.

My baby is walking

Sorry it's sideways. I used my camera and I am always taking pictures that direction. Darn that habit!

Anyway, AIN'T HE CUTE....

How I saved $126.27

So I have a new favorite thing to do... couponing! I love to be able to get a good deal on something! And my food storage has really bulked up since I've started this.

So tonight I ended up going to three different Albertsons, and here is what I came home with:


1st Albertsons:
Price before coupons & Sales= $70.71
I spent= $23.23 (and I left with a $10 catalina.)
Total savings= $47.48


2nd Albertsons:
Price before coupons & Sales= $50.12
I spent= $16.60
(I used my 1st catalina and I left with a $10 catalina.)
Total savings= $36.52


3rd Albertsons:
Price before coupons & Sales= $53.05
I spent= $10.78
(I used my 2nd catalina and I left with a $10 catalina.)
Total savings= $42.27

Now can you see why I LOVE coupons so much? It just is such a great idea! I save money and the stores get reimbursed for the coupon value. It's win, win!

Kids say the Darndest Things

Owen: Mom, I just got a small bleeding cut.

Calvin: Well, if you have to get a cut, that's the best kind to get.

Well unless you get one with super powers.
