While blog hopping this evening, I came across a wonderful blog called A Gracious Home. 

The author has decided this is the year to celebrate God's abundant blessings by concentrating on what she already has instead of constantly wanting and purchasing more.  "I am going to try to limit my spending as much as possible and use what I already have rather than buying more." (A Gracious Home) With the prospect of hubby being unemployed for only God knows how long, this seems like an area I would like to focus on as well.  I will periodically post articles relating to how we are using the blessings the Lord has already given us in new and exciting ways.  I love a challenge don't you?
