Family Balance Sheet

MARCH 9, 2018

I’ve been working behind the scenes on a tool that I personally use to track and organize our finances: Family Budget Spreadsheets. We were able to set aside the money over a course of 16 months and it felt amazing to walk in to a store and have the cash for a purchase. I am a planner by nature, so I leaned into my spreadsheets.

My husband and I made some serious financial goals for 2014. To achieve those goals I need to review our spending to see where I can make some cuts. I created a master list (see photo below) of my family’s favorite, easy and healthy meals to use as a reference tool. This saves me time during meal planning.
