Two Amazing Offers

I usually don't post two offers...but these are so good, I wanted to share both.  (Click on image or link to begin)

Do you have a family photo or a cute piece of artwork from your child that you'd love to see on a nice, sturdy canvas?



Canvas People  is offering a FREE 8 x 10 or $50 off any size canvas as a special introductory deal! This coupon can be applied toward a larger size canvas, creative effects, or beautiful frames! But, 2 Canvas are always better than 1 and with 50% off your second canvas and 50% off shipping there’s no reason to only get one.

This would be a fun way to decorate a child's room with their own colorful artwork.  Or, personalize your home with a beautiful canvas family portrait. 


The second offer is one you don't want to miss if you don't already have a way to back up your computer.  You should consider this incredible offer.  It's even more incredible because you don't have to offer your credit card info for the free trial like most companies require.

I LOVE Swagbucks

Did you know that you could be earning FREE Amazon gift cards simply by doing toolbar searches that you probably do daily anyway? Swagbucks has been a huge blessing to our family. I have purchased many Amazon gift cards that I immediately put into my Amazon account. I was able to buy most of my home schooling material this year for FREE thanks to Swagbucks. For just 450 Swagbucks, you can snag a $5 Amazon gift card. Of course, there are many other things you can buy (like Paypal cash and Starbucks gift cards), but I stick with my trusty Amazon gift cards.



Here's how it works. Click on the image above and sign up for Swagbucks. You will download a simple Swagbucks toolbar and that's it! Once your toolbar is up, begin using it for your daily searches.

There are other ways in which you can earn Bucks as well. You can do daily polls and surveys. You can also try promotional offers and earn big Bucks. Recently, I signed up for a 30-day trial of Netflix. Our family enjoyed a months worth of fun movies and documentaries, and I enjoyed 1000 Swagbugs! Cha-Ching!

Here are just some of the gift cards I've redeemed. I've got two more waiting to be delivered into my account.

Daughter in Training

One of the many ways our family has been able save a little money has been by avoiding the salon or barber when possible. I have been cutting hair since I was a teenager and this has come in handy for our growing family. I am not a professional and have had no formal training, I just seemed to have had a knack for cutting hair.  And I had many opportunities when I was young.

My brothers were my first victims customers, and then my sister offered her head as a sacrifice practice model. And that led to some of their friends asking for hair cuts.

So when I married Greg, well, naturally I would convince him to let me cut his hair as well. What a nice man!!!

SO, I figure, in the 16 years we've been married, at approximately one cut a month times 16 years, say at $10 a cut, I've saved us at LEAST $1920.00. Of course, that doesn't even include Seth's hair or the girls......just Greg!

Recently, Cheyenne has shown an interest in learning how to cut hair. And since it is our goal to train our girls in all aspects in the art of homemaking, now is the perfect time to begin. The last few "training sessions" consisted of her just observing while I talked about and demonstrated different techniques. Today was the big cutting day......and what a good daddy to allow his head to be used for training purposes!


Cheyenne did a great job and I can't wait for her to be able to cut hair on her own to take some of the load off of me!


So here you have it....our freshly cut men!
