Spaghetti and meatballs!

Yesterday I made Spaghetti with homemade meatballs and Garlic Bread. It all turned out very yummy. Rory has Saturday, Sunday and Monday off to spend with us. I am so excited! It is a rare event to have time together with out him leaving for work or school. Today, he went laser tagging with his little brother and when he got home I went and got a manicure and eye brow waxing with my sisters. It was lots of fun. Than, we went to my parents house while Rory and Keith played video games all night Logan showed off to Grandma Connie with his dancing skills. Now, we just finished Logans bed time routine and are relaxing with and enjoying eachothers company.

The house buying process is as stressful as everyone says it is. Right now, we have a cosigner but are waiting for some loans to go through for them before they can cosign. We will have close to $10,000 saved up by the end of February. With a cosigner, we wont need a down payment, which is part of the first time buyers program. So, with all of the money we have saved, we have decided to pay off Rorys car, his old school loan debts, and a years worth of car insurance. We owe right about $6,000 or less to Rorys car. Than, we will send about $900 for a years worth of car insurance and than we owe about $1,600 to his school loan. Once we pay his car off, that will raise my credit from 690 to in the 700's and his school loan being payed will also increase Rorys credit score. Whatever extra money we have will go back into savings. By September, if we have our house by than, we will be buying me a car since we wont have a car payment anymore! Yay!

We are going to be taking Logan to Petsmart tomorrow to look at the animals. He enjoys the simplest things, and we love being able to take him every where.
I am off to get ready, bye!
