Thursdays Thirteen

Thirteen ways to spend our (miracle) tax return money:

1. Go on a second honeymoon
(We'd love to return to the Gunflint Lodge)
2. Pay off our last student loan (We had four between Brian and I)
3. Get off to a great start on a family vacation fund (We want to see the National
Parks out West)
4. Pay off a credit card
5. Barely make a dent in a different credit card
6. Make a dent in yet another credit card
7. Buy a (much needed) new bed
8. Replace our dying dishwasher, garage door, or driveway
9. Put it in a savings account (boring, but the responsible thing to do)
10. Hire a personal trainer to help me lose the last 15 pregnancy pounds
11. Buy a killer digital camera
12. Put it towards classes for the kids: swimming lessons, music lessons, early
childhood classes etc....
13. Pay a cleaning service to come clean my house (at least for a little while)
