Have a Fun Filled 4th of July on a Budget

June 30, 2011

4th of July is coming up in just a few days. It’s a day, for many, where you celebrate with family and friends! There’s usually a picnic or barbecue of sorts and of course…fireworks after the sun goes down! What if times are tough right now though? Should you bail on the festivities? No way! You can totally do 4th of July on a budget, it…

Heather is a wife and mom of two living in the great state of Texas. She loves to work with children and spend time with her family. Heather loves to write about family, frugality and parenthood. When she was a little girl, her mother always told her that one day she would be a writer. She planned to be an actress, a teacher AND a lawyer but told her mom she would never, ever, be a writer. Fast forward 20 or so years, and the biggest lesson Heather has learned is that your mom is always right.

Heather started using coupons and shopping sales to save her family money and it caught the interest of everyone around her. To keep from repeating the same thing over and over again, she started a blog to share her love of great deals and fun, frugal living. You can find her blogging at Family Friendly Frugality and over at A Southern Mom.

Heather is delighted to help others shop smart and spend wisely.
