kiengkham's korner: save $160!

We had a low key week. After travelling to Alabama we wanted to stay around the house. Souwan and I did a major coupon shopping haul this week with all of our extra time.

Mother's day came up so quickly. I was so excited to celebrate with my mom and aunt. My brother and I gave my mom a new patio set. I took hers to our new home. Don't be mad about it. She loves her new wicker patio set! This year I gave her pink roses from my garden. It's very exciting to grow something and be able to gift it to my mom. She was just as ex...
