March Sponsor!

Okay, so this past month or so I have met SO many awesome fellow blogging ladies. I think that is one of the MAIN reasons I even blog. This post is centered on a new friend I have made in the "blog world."


 Her name is Elizabeth and she blogs over at

Here is a little tidbit about Elizabeth and her blog!

{About Me} Hey everyone! My name is Elizabeth and I’m a 20-something senior college student. I’m new to blogging, so I’m still getting the hang of this…but I love writing, trying new things and saving money (who doesn’t, right?) I’m obsessed with organizing, drinking coffee and listening to country music. I have a newfound love for the outdoors, old movies, crafting and cooking. I’m a yoga enthusiast and have just recently started Pilates (which I love!).
{About My Blog} After the summer of 2011 I found myself with an overwhelming number of credits to take my final year of college so I had to quit my job of 2+ years. Although I had spent my entire summer working and taking classes, I still found time to shop, vacation and spend way too much money. At the end of the summer I was hit with a wake up call -- despite all the hours I had put in at work, my bank account was devastatingly low. I realized I couldn't spend like I had been any longer.
Now I’m finding it more important than ever to save money. I thought that by starting my blog, I could share my tips and tricks I've developed and learned along the way to help others who were living on a budget, or just trying to save a buck or two here and there! I am by no means an expert (I'm studying history and then going on to grad school to be a teacher), but I have developed and adapted a lot of tricks that work for me. I also want to offer a few health, beauty, fitness and other tips as well! Come visit me at Fearless & Frugal and bear with me while I get started! :)

I love reading Elizabeth's blog, because I can totally relate to the things she blogs about, and to me that is so important when it comes to choosing which blogs I read. I also love that she is so genuine about her struggles with being a young woman and college student who doesn't have it all figured out! Click over to her blog and show her some blog lovin'!

Happy Friday Photobooth



'Tis a grey and groggy day hanging outside my window, but it in no way reflects my mood for the day! I have a to-do list the length of my arm and I refuse to let this nasty get me down! Thought I would stop by and show(&tell) a little bit of what has been happening in my life the last week.

Deci (Audrey and Q's oldest daughter) goes to school on Monday and Thursday mornings... so on occasion I will watch Journey (pictured with me above) while Audrey goes to pick Deci up from school. I did this on Monday and we had a mini photo shoot.

Since our guests left on Tuesday, I have been confined to my room/desk. Nick and Brandi Longshore came from Alabama to visit for a week and stayed in my room. I, of course, didn't do school work while they were here so that I could participate in the fun festivities that go along with having guests over. So since they have been gone, I have been nonstop trying to get my room back to normal, catching back up on school work, catching up on blog posts, knitting hats, etc.

And speaking of knitting hats.... these are the three I made this week. They are a part of a special order for my friend Karla who is having a baby girl soon! She lives in Maryland and I live in Oregon, so, I need to get these in the mail TODAY so they can travel across the country to her house! Thanks, Karla! 

That's literally ALL I have accomplished this week. I have not exercised one single time, but somehow I weigh less than I did when our guests came. Which is super weird because we ate out A LOT. I seriously need to work out today. Tonight is girls night, also! Audrey and I are going out to see "The Vow" tonight with some new friends! I will let you know how it is! Also, I have a job interview on Monday at my favorite froyo (frozen yogurt in the Northwest) place- Vanilla Jill's! So, please be praying about that! I hope you all have an awesome weekend!
I have a new page with grab buttons, as well! So, if you wanna swap buttons or just add mine to your site... head on over to the buttons&sponsor swap page!

I will leave you with the "Bible Verse of the Day" that is showing on my Android phone:

As a father shows compassion to his children, so the Lord shows compassion to those who fear Him.
-Psalms 103:13
