Another New Chapter

After another super long break from adding to this blog (Chris and I have both had several new jobs in the last 6 mths and a whole host of other life complications) I'm back to say, onward in a new direction!  Just in time for my 35th birthday (perhaps it was 35 I should have been looking forward to all along??).  We're freshly and intensely focused on ridding ourselves of the debt that has crept up during the last 2 years of health challenges, job changes, and unexpectedly rapid fire adoption (not complaining, we just weren't prepared to pay for it that fast).  The motivation?  Aside from the obvious benefit of making our money "our money" instead of sending it all back out the door as fast as it comes in, drum roll please....ADOPTION!  We just don't feel "done" growing our family and, for us, that is a financial undertaking.  Chris always said he wanted a middle child so he could spoil them most of all and Daxton makes the perfect kiddo for that role so, we will be paying down everything we can think of as fast as possible Dave Ramsey style so we can get ready to do it all over again, this time better prepared in the $$ department.  Just thought I'd log this in here cementing my commitment to a Total Money Makeover even further!!!
