    Smile Another Newbie!

    Hi, all! Glad to have found you. I'm Natasha, and am a SAHM (formerly a teacher) to two kids--a 5.5 year old boy, and a 2.5 year old girl. I have been married to my wonderful husband for 8.5 years. I like to cook and read. I am very frugal by nature, and am trying to convert DH to my ways.

    We are working on paying off a vehicle loan which stands at about 8,500. I would like to have it paid in full by July 2006. Other than that and our house (which we just refinanced to a 15 year fixed rate loan last week), we are debt free. We want to keep it that way, and have just discovered Dave Ramsey, whose methods we are trying to follow. We are half way to completing our large EF.

    I hope to get to know you all, and pick up on some more great frugal advice.
    Mom to two great kids!
