Money Jar

Before anything today I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your sweet words of advice and encouragement with my job situation. I appreciate it so much, and have really taken it all to heart! I have been praying praying praying and I will keep you posted!!
 
Last night was wonderful! Sean and I cooked dinner, drank some wine, and cuddled in for some relaxing. It was the perfect celebration of our anniversary! We got to talking about our future dreams and developed the idea of a money jar.
 
 
Each week we have decided to put 20-40 bucks each into the jar...and any extra change or cash we may have on hand and don't need. We will just keep filling the jar until we decide its time to fulfil one of our dreams.
 
One of our dreams is to travel. Neither of us have been to many places, so this is something we would really love to experience. Whether it is packing up and road tripping to the northern part of our home state of Minnesota to explore all the little towns and beautiful nature.....
 



Or road tripping to our neighbor state to check out the black hills.....

 
Or hopping on a plane and traveling across the country to Hawaii, or maybe even Ireland or Italy.
 

I would be happy to go to any of these places with my sweet hubby...I think the company is more important than the location :)

Another one of our dreams is to own an old classic car or truck. Sean has always LOVED cars. He has also always wanted to own a classic to pull out on a hot summer day to cruise around in. I can see us riding around in one of these, this can't you?



Whatever we decide to do with our money jar will be amazing. It is fun to dream of the future and think of things we want to share together. As you can tell these past few days have been full of thinking about my future...so when I opened my Dove chocolate and saw this message today, I felt so much peace and hope.

 
Bless you sweet friends!! Have a wonderful day!
