I’m a Matron

Of honor that is. My bff Erin asked me to be the matron of honor in her wedding and I am so excited! As I’ve mentioned before, she was the maid of honor in my wedding and I am honored to do the same for her. Only I’m an old married lady now so I am the “matron”…ha! She says that I was an incredibly organized bride, but I sure didn’t feel that way the day of the wedding! Lucky for me my fabulous maid of honor kept me together and got me (and all my stuff) where I needed to be. I am so happy I get to do the same for her!

She was super cute and sent me a mini bottle of champagne and a very sweet card!

I was really excited about my gift….and so was Henry! We can’t wait for the wedding!

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
