School Loans


This is kind of how I have been feeling since I graduated 6 years ago from college! I wasn't really smart about trying to pay more than my mininums, which is why we have paid more than 3/4 of it in the last 5 months!!! It's crazy how much smarter Jake and I are with our money! It's a sickening amount that we have paid off within this year we have been married... but I am so grateful we have been doing it! I am so grateful for Jake and how dilligent he is, and how hard he has worked at his job! His job has been truly a tender mercy for us...

I will be the first to say that I am officially debt free!!!!! My car and student loans have been weighing so heavily on me for a few years, and they are officially GONE!!! The car dealership called me the month my car got paid off, and wanted to know if I wanted to do a trade in.. I laughed at the guy and said "Heck no!" My car is finally paid off!!!! Who wants to have more payments!

Jake and I worked really hard to crank away on these, and I couldn't be happier about it! Last on the list, Jake's student loans from getting his Masters...
