Debt Free is the Way to Be!

So we managed to rack up quite a bit of debt in the three years we've been married. Even before we were together, Tena had student loans and credit card debt, a brand new Toyota Tacoma, etc. And after we got married, we piled on an $8,000 honeymoon (We splurged a little on that ;) WELL worth it though... I'd do it again in a heartbeat), student loans for me, a couple vacations, and who knows what else. But, Tena being the good man he is, sold his dream truck, and put every cent of any type of bonus he got towards our debt. All his friends bought TVs and all kinds of cool stuff and Tena didn't buy anything. Together we came up with a budget and in three years, we were able to pay off about $40,000 of debt. Last month we officially became debt free! We got a decent tax return too so we decided to get some new furniture. We bought a brand new leather sectional and a dinning table. I LOVE them both! We are so blessed and I'm very grateful for our beautiful home and everything in it.
