Paid Off!

“Interest never sleeps nor sickens nor dies. … Once in debt, interest is your companion every minute of the day and night; you cannot shun it or slip away from it; you cannot dismiss it; it yields neither to entreaties, demands, or orders; and whenever you get in its way or cross its course or fail to meet its demands, it crushes you” (President J. Reuben Clark in Conference Report, Apr. 1938, p. 103).

I've had the feeling for a while now that we need to get out of debt and as soon as possible. I don't know why I've had that feeling, but I don't want to go against it. After talking to Bryce we've made it a priority to pay off the highest intrest first, which was our credit card. While we were paying off our credit card we've been trying to make double payments on Bryce's car so that we could have it paid off before Christmas. And we did it!!! YAY!! The only debt we have is my car (which we plan to pay that off next year before christmas) and our house. Now we just have to stay out of debt. :)

Halloween Party


For those of you who don't know me very well... I LOVE HALLOWEEN!!! As a kid, I remember wearing a costume to school, trick-or-treating with my friends, and all the candy! But, Bryce and I have noticed that this holiday has lost a lot of its fun since we have grown up and got married. A lot of our friends aren't even wearing costumes anymore!
We have determined not to let Halloween pass us by again! We will be throwing an annual costume party every Halloween. The party starts at 7:00pm. There will be snacks, drinks, music, scary cartoons, ping-pong, and of course, a trophy for Best Costume.
Help us in the fight against being bored on Halloween night! Bring your kids... everybody is welcome! We hope to see you there. Our address is listed below:
