Frugal It Out

Amy bio:  My brain has always been wired a bit differently to creatively think outside the box in the most frugal and efficient ways.  I am a spunky 34 year old stay at home mom who just sent the littlest to kindergarten.  I have been married 10 years with a 7yr old girl and 6yr old boy.  We also have been blessed with 4 bonus teens who have lived with us over the last four years. .  We live on 10 acre farm that we were elated to get as a foreclosure 2 years ago.  With no kids at home during the day I have a list ten miles long to fix up our house.  Being a Dave Ramsey fan we dont have an envelope of extra cash to just pay someone to do it and for me to go out and buy decorations so I try to figure out how to do it all myself.  Also, my husband travels alot so I cant chicken out and make him do it for me.   I had no skills whatsoever just a drive to research how to do something and a lack of fear dive in and try. I’ve definelty had my fair share of fails but the wins far out w

Kerrisa's bio: I have always loved design. Whether it was in fashion or home decor it's always been a passion of mine. I am 31 and have been a SAHM for the past 8 years. I have been married to my husband for 10 years and we have two very crazy little boys 8 and 4. My husband and I recently bought our first home which has been a little bit of a fixer upper. We have done all of the renovations ourselves and with one kiddo in school full time and the other starting preschool part time I find myself with lots of projects around my home that I love doing! When Amy and I met almost 9 years ago we bonded over being first time mom's that has turned into a life long friendship. This girl's go getter attitude is second to none! She definitely motivates me on the daily which you will see in Amy’s Motivational Moment.
