Then we took it inside and played Catch Phrase. We also had a time where we talked about money and debt, and people asked us for advice (Thanks, Nell!). It was not a conversation that we usually have with friends, but I find that at our age, the topic of money is coming up more often. We'd like to thank Courtney's ministry supporters, since they allowed us to pay off the debt sooner. Also, one last thanks to Dave Ramsey and the live event for inspiring us to pay off the debt with intensity.

Debt-free BBQ
Even before I met Courtney it was her dream to have a party once her SBU debt was paid off. We put her dream into action. And God blessed our time with good weather and with a lot of friends who came over to celebrate with us. We were so excited during the time, that we forgot to take pictures. We had about 15 people on our deck, which has built in benches. At one point I announced that our program was about to begin, and that everyone would share how much debt that they have.

ReplyDeleteyup, it was a joke to ask people to share how much debt they had. That is less obvious in writing than in person!
