Easy as 1, 2, 3

A few weeks ago I came across a great deal on Group Dealz…..1,2,3 vinyl decals from one of my favorite bloggers, The House of Smiths‘ vinyl shop, Wonderfully Wordy. And considering my love of all things number related, I hate to jump on the deal!
I was so excited when they arrived in the mail.

I stuck them on my Ikea canisters and love how great they look. And it was super easy.

Looks like we need to stock up on more brown sugar.

Those red polka dot bowls are part of a vintage Fire King set. My mom has the three larger ones in California…she usually brings me one at a time when she visits. They are one of my most favorite things.

And in case you think I have it all together…here is what I cropped out of the photo. A sink full of dishes waiting to be put it away. Just keeping it real.

It really is true when they say the days are long It really is true when they say the days are long but the years are short. One day I’m struggling to carry two babies at a time while wrangling a toddler and then next minute they are all off to school and practices and friends’ houses. With all three kids in school we’ve been thinking a lot about their futures and how we are going to one day pay for college. We set up a Michigan Education Trust 529 plan for each of our kids when they were babies and I am SO happy we did! With a MET account, we can pay for future college tuition at today’s prices. With MET’s discounted age-based pricing the earlier you start, the more you are able to save! Plus grandparents and other loved ones can contribute to my kids’ accounts too! With MET you get back what you put in if your child chooses a different path and the money goes with you if your child goes to school out of state. You can even transfer it to immediate family members and all contributions to MET plans are tax deductible! To learn more about how to set up a MET account and the benefits of starting your child’s account early, check out my stories or the link in my bio. @mieducationtrust #sponsored #SETwithMET #MI529 #collegesavings #METSept2023
