Happy Friday! 
Today is my BF’s birthday so it’s going to be a particularly special weekend. We have some custom beer brewing and F1 racing action lined up for tomorrow and dinner & drinks with friends tonight. Oh, and I filled the house with balloons and a scavenger hunt full of the who/what/when/where clues for the weekend’s festivities–it was awesome because he’d just returned home from an extra grueling, week-long business trip.
What’s on your agenda for the weekend?
Also, don’t forget about the camera giveaway I’m currently part of! Enter to win a Canon Rebel T4i DSLR camera at the bottom of the page!!

Thanks for the mention Jen! I loved writing that article (Should You Pay Off the Mortgage ASAP?). There are many opinions on this topic and I love the debate it sparks! Really makes us think about what the right answer is for each of us.

You're welcome! I agree–it was great to see all the differing opinions…as a mortgage holder myself, I sometimes am on both sides of the fence
