Taxes

I just finished our taxes and sent them off. I love getting a refund. It's like a forced savings account for us. We plan on using the refund to buy a new dishwasher, maybe a trip to Georgia in March when my brother comes home from his mission and a Yellowstone trip with the rest of the Utah Hibberts in May. We really wanted to finish the last room in our basement but with the economy how it is Neil, wants to save everything we can in case he loses his job (you just never know) so that's on hold for awhile since it's not a necessity. We don't even go down to the basement anyway. The goal is to have 6 months worth of living expenses (house payment, utilities, food, gas, etc.) in savings before we finish the room so it probably will be a long time.
