Celebrating with a GIVEAWAY!

I just got an e-mail from our electric company…. our bill last month was just under $100!  This is cause for celebration in our house!
Especially throughout the spring, summer and fall months we all work extra hard to keep the bill down, with the less than $100/month goal in mind.  We used to celebrate with ice cream, but these hot summer days ice cream is almost a part of our regular routine.  So we just do a happy dance & pat ourselves on the back.

Some of the very simple things we do are:

  • Keep the heat/air off-  With being pregnant this year, July in our house might be a different story!
  • Dry a majority of the laundry outside- Last year it was all done out there, but again, being pregnant I sometimes opt for convenience.
  • Switch lights off & open the curtains instead.
  • Take shorter showers to reduce the amount of time the hot water heater has to work.

These are all super simple folks, you can do it!

What are some ways you save on your electricity bill?

Fill out the form below & be entered to win a $5 Amazon.com gift card.  I ♥ Amazon and am happy to offer this gift to my readers for your support of visiting my blog & sharing your input.

Giveaway will close 6/14 (my parents anniversary!).  Feel free to share this on your Facebook or other social media/e-mail to also give your friends a chance to win.

Hey Friend! I am truly so glad that you’re here today!

At A Slightly Better Wife, I share about faith, homemaking, homeschooling, and marriage—along with my passion for creating a non-toxic, intentional home. Life isn’t about perfection, but I believe in making small, meaningful choices each day to do things slightly better than before.

My love for simple living and homemaking was deeply shaped by my grandparents. I have the best childhood memories of being in the kitchen with my Grandma Edna, learning the beauty of home-cooked meals and a well-tended home. My Grandpa Link’s storytelling and wisdom instilled in me the value of faith, family, and slowing down to listen during the little moments that make life rich. Their influence is woven into who I am today and I’m so grateful for that.

I’m a wife, a momma of 5, and a homemaker at heart. My husband and I met young, just days after my 18th birthday, and we quickly (like within a week) knew that forever was in our plans.

Together, we built our home on the edge of town, where we’re raising and homeschooling our children while embracing a simple, purposeful life in the city.

Here, you’ll find encouragement for your marriage, practical tips for homemaking, and inspiration to cultivate a home filled with faith and love. Whether you’re looking for a recipe, a fresh perspective, or just a place to feel understood, I hope you’ll stay awhile and explore.

Let’s pursue slightly better together!
