2014 Goals Update - February

After making goals for 2013 and working hard to achieve them, my husband and I made some goals for 2014. We are going to do our best to attain these goals. Each month, I will update this blog on how we are doing on our progress!

1. Continue to build our 72 Survival Kit - started, need to complete
2. Floor the attic - need the storage!
3. Update the kitchen appliances we have - dishwasher, stove, microwave --Bought a dishwasher in January!! So excited about that! Saving up to replace the stove & microwave
4. Put extra money toward paying off our house (Dave Ramsey's Baby Step #6) -- Putting an extra $250 a month toward the principal on our mortgage and any "extra" money we have at the end of the month
5. Be intentional about finding place/people to give to
6. Continue to save for a vacation ($689.07 saved as of February 1, 2014)
7. Continue to save for a "new" vehicle ($5,875.97 saved as of February 1, 2014) -- Had to use some funds to fix our car from the accident
8. Bret to buy a sidearm, a holster, and an AR (maybe!) - using overtime money to pay for this
9. Take a short trip together somewhere - may be difficult with Bret's new LEO schedule
