Well hello again.
It”s yet again time for some good ole budget accountability and fun!
Again, in these posts we will write-up typical expenses that may get overlooked for the particular month. Then we have a photo link up portion where YOU can upload a photo of your budget committee meeting for the month!
So, what expenses might you expect in the month of April?
- EASTER!!
- Festive Meal
- Party
- Gifts for family/friends/children/people becoming Catholic
- Easter Egg hunts
- Travel
- Fun activities for the octave
- March Madness
- Championship game party/outing
- Spring Cleaning Supplies
- Mop, Broom, Vacuum
- Organizational boxes
- Filing Cabinet
- Vehicle Maintenance
- Car Washes or supplies
- Oil change
- Windshield Wipers
- Expenses Related to Taxes
- Accountant/CPA
- Turbo Tax, etc.
- E-Filing Fees
- Birthday gifts
- Wedding gifts
- Summer vacation/wedding flights
Again, these are some expenses we’ve found ourselves budgeting for this month, so they might be applicable to you or not. Some of these expenses are best budgeted for as a sinking fund...like birthday and wedding gifts. We tend to get slammed with Wedding gift expenses during the summer months and it’s so much easier if we put away a certain amount monthly for that time.
We are excited to have travel to Nebraska in our budget this month to see a friend enter the Catholic faith!! We haven’t spent Easter with family in almost 8 years so it will be really nice to be around them. We also have the last of our adoption expenses this month before Josie’s finalization in May! 🙂
Now it’s time for your part!

haha I think it’s funny that your budget post comes on the day that I said I don’t like to budget. Lalalala ignoring this post! 🙂
