Simply Simplifying

Just like the title says, I am simply simplifying my life as of now, well the other day is when it started. After my last post I started thinking about how spoiled we've let ourselves become, and even though I like the way we can easily buy something if we want it, but I want to do things worth while. even though we have been hanging out and getting to know more and more people, it would be nice if we can actually do something with them besides sit around and stare at each other.

So we discussed how we could simplify? Easiest way is to get rid of the smart phones that aren't so smart because they break...all the time! So I sold it, we also have four TV's! This is ridiculous! We don't need that many TV's what happened to having the one in the family room and that's it. Do we really need to interrupt our relaxing in bed by watching the TV. It's just something more to distract us from spending time together. This goes for Ali too, she doesn't need a TV in her room so that we don't have to deal with her crazy behavior before bed. So we're simplifying.

So by doing this not only are we making money off of the things we no longer need but we'll be saving money for things we want to do. I want to eventually take our first family vacation, I don't count the things we saw in England because it didn't feel like a vacation. I'm talking about Disney Land or Disney World, even going to see family and going to the beach to hang out, all three of us. It feels like since we go married we're always seeing new places separately rather than together as a family, and I don't like that feeling. I know its part of his job to go off and be gone to different places, but its also our job as parents to do something as a family with Alison. So who knows maybe we'll be in your area sometime soon! Until then I will just blog my life away.
