DH and I took $2000 of our tax refund to Deadwood....and came home with $2600!! YEAH! I gave $100 to DH for fun money and then I get to have my kind of fun with the rest! I wanted to put a large chunk of it towards the mortgage, but there are a few things up in the air in life right now, so until things are more in place, we decided to put it in savings. We can always take it out and make a large payment later when things are more secure. But for now YEAH for savings being FULL!
