Krystal bought her first house...I'm very proud of her. I have been pushing her for years to purchase a house for her family, however she always thought it was something she couldn't do. Either she had bad credit, or she didn't have the money, or she just wasn't in the right place. But it seemed …

We bought hot dogs, chicken, hamburger, all the things we said we were going to avoid. This journey isn't one that we just thought …
Cooking Healthy
I titled this cooking healthy because that is our newest journey. But the truth is I have about 10 dishes I cook, I sort of rotate the dishes monthly and the other days it is usually fast food. Most people I know lives their lives this way. Too busy to change or too tired. When …
