7 Things We Splurge On

Airfare

We live 18 driving hours away from family.  Enough said.

Dates

I'm wondering if this is even a splurge.  It's on the list because not everyone has regular dates.  I see it more as an investment in our relationship.

Shoes
Alexis trips all over the place in any other brand but Stride Rite.  Luckily I'm able to sometimes find them at consignment sales.  
For Josh and I- It makes sense to spend the extra because they last a lot longer. 
 

Coffee

Really, I tried to go cheap with the Folgers.  Made me want to puke. Eww, so bad!   First thing I do in the am is walk to my coffee pot. I like coffee so much, I think about that warm mug before I fall asleep each night.  It's the little things that make life enjoyable...they should be good quality!  Hill of Beans is my favorite coffee shop in Omaha. 

 

Gym Membership

We want to have a healthy active lifestyle.  It would be really hard to do that In the Midwest with Alexis and no membership. 
 

Trash Bags

Josh does the trash.  He requests Glad with ties.  Not my area- What he wants is what he gets.  
 

House Cleaning

Not all the time, just about twice a year.  I call Molly Maids when our life gets super busy or when the cleaning is overwhelming me.  $110 saves my sanity.  I get a fresh start.  Worth every penny.
