Most of you that guessed Lauren and I are pregnant, were wrong. Sorry.
We have actually paid off ALL of our school loan debt. We began focusing on this in January 2007 and finished at the end of January 2008. So, in 13 months we have paid off a total in $58,090.39 in school loans. Talk about a huge monkey off our back. We are now planning to save for a house and even have the freedom to give more which we love doing.
I’ll post more on how we did it if anyone is interested in knowing.

Hi Honey! I’m so proud of you and all that you do for us. Thank you for wanting us to be debt free and being such an encouragement during these past 13 months. I’m so excited for what the future holds for us. I love you so much!

Hey Jeremy! very impressive, and way to go. That is a huge burden to be rid of, and you will reap the benefits of your discipline for a long long time. I know people in their 40’s that still have loans from college, but you will never have to look back now. BTW I miss seeing you all in Sunday School. There’s not many other folks in sunday school that I can carry on a good conversation with like I do with you.

I know what you mean when you say we’re sooo weird. Normal is broke. We are taking the time to live like no else now so later, we can live like no one else.
