My Weekend in Photos

This is the start of my absolute favorite time of year + this weekend was packed with celebrations! One of my best friends from high school, Ashley, is getting married in October and my mother-in-law hosted the cutest “Lucky in Love” bridal shower for her Friday night.

And how gorgeous is she?!lucky-in-love-bridal-shower-theme^ This cake + cookies from Country Cakes and Bakes in New Holland were soooooo delicious!

3.) Your Ohio's 529 doesn't just cover tuition - you can use it on any qualified expense, like room & board, books, computers, internet services, mandatory fees and MUCH more.
4.) 529 plans aren't just for 4-year colleges. Ohio's 529 can be used at ANY type of school - whether that's a 4-year college, trade and tech schools, certificate programs, apprenticeships and more.
5.) There are SO many tax benefits - ALL earnings, including interest, grow tax-free, 529 plan withdrawals are tax-free when used for qualified higher education expenses, and you can deduct your contributions from their Ohio taxable income, up to $4K per year, per beneficiary.
