Angel Food Ministries

I have heard of the Angel Food Ministries and have "wanted" to order through them many times; I guess my pride kept me from actually doing it... I don't know.

I shared the other day that we are changing the way we spend in the Paden household. As Dave Ramsey puts it, "If you live like no one else, later you can live like no one else." Every time I think I can't be stripped any more of my pride, the Lord goes and strips more. I guess that's the key, don't ever think I've got it!"

Anyway, I found out today, when I went to the Angel Food Ministries site that you can now order online! I signed up today! It was so easy! IF you decide to give it a try, no you don't have to meet requirements by income standards, please put my name (Stacey Paden) and/or email (thepadens@cox.net) down for the referral. Then, you need to refer to as many people as you can as you get free food for so many referrals!

Changes To Blog & Pictures

If you frequent my blog regularly, you should have noticed there is no music playing. Yeap, I messed it up. I was attempting to change the song, and deleted the widget, lost the file and have no idea how to even get it back. So, until then, you’ll have to deal with silence.

Also, on the right side of my blog, you will notice a gadget called southernsavers. It is absolutely amazing! I encourage you to visit the site and be amazed at how much you can save. I must warn you, it is time consuming in the beginning; however, the money you can save by spending a little extra time planning is AMAZING!

Another thing, I want to encourage you to take the time to read Dave Ramsey, “The Total Money Makeover.” I have just started reading and was overwhelmed with hope of being free from debt.

I’m adding a picture of my Kaitlyn. She turned 4 in November. She has been able to type her name on the computer for a few weeks now as she and Christopher both love playing games on the computer and have learned how to spell their names by printing out certificates. I was completely blown away when I walked in my room to have Kaitlyn show me that she wrote out her name! She is sooo proud, as she should be, and as I am! I took a picture and she is having a fit for me to put it on here! She keeps saying, “you sure are writing a lot of letters!” Anyway, I just wanted to share this picture.

Can you tell how proud she is?!

Will post more about the money saving tips I come across. I’m excited to see what the Lord has in store for us once we learn to spend the other 90% of our income the way He would have us do!

More yet to come……
