Household Budget Challange


We are moved in and settled for the most part. It is now time to revamp and apply our household budget. Since we went from renting to owning . . .YEAH! We have a few more bills than before. Not to mention both of our children had surgeries earlier this year. As you can imagine the move and the surgeries have rocked our budget some.

One night, while enjoying the quiet time and Pinterest, I came across a Pin for a blog about how a family is living on $28,000.00 a year. No that is not a type-o! I was interested from the start. I mean how is that even possible without receiving help from one source or another. I started reading the blog post, this lady was for real. Her family was living pretty well on such a small income.

On the blog, thepeacefulmom.com, Kimberlee outlines how to get your budget in order and keep it that way. She not only explains in detail how her family lives on so little, but she also outline and provides FREE printables to help you get started.

That is what I am going to do. I am going to hook up my printer tomorrow and get started with organizing my budget using the tools from thepeacefulmom.com blog. Fortunately for me, I have more of an income to work with, but I would love to save and invest more if possible. Plus, I love a deal! If I can learn some about how to save a buck that would be awesome.

As I work through Kimberlee's process, I will post updates on my progress.
