Hi! I'm Marissa! I live in Portland, Oregon with my husband. When we got married, we had $80,000 of student loans and knew that we wanted to pay it off as soon as possible so we could be able to live out our dream of having a house and family! So we started budgeting and sacrificing to pay it off. We paid off all our debt in 2.5 years and since then have saved for retirement, saved an emergency fund, and bought our dream home! On my YouTube channel and Instagram account, I share budgeting tips with millennial women to help them find the balance between enjoying life and accomplishing financial goals. Having a budget allows you to stay accountable with your financial goals while still spending money on the things that are important to you. And that's what I share on my platforms.
Happy Easter! ✝️ Baby boy #3 coming early August. 💙💙💙 #pregnancyannouncement #pregnancy #pregnant #baby3 #boymom #momofboys
Are you struggling with any of these too? ❤️ I love to share family budgeting encouragement here on social media, but that doesn’t mean it’s always easy for me either. There are seasons of things being hard too. Just wanted to say that you’re doing a great job. And everyone has struggles or doubts. ❤️ #familfinance #familybudget #familybudgeting #budgeting #budgetingtips #debtfree #debtfreecommunity

Last week’s Disney day was one for the memories. 🐭 Something I loved about this trip was the budget permission to say YES! Bubble wand, ear hat, churro, dole whip, Mickey pretzel… budgeting doesn’t mean you don’t spend money. It allows you to have a plan to say yes to things you enjoy and plan ahead. Also, kids under 3 are free and Peter turns 3 next month so that was a great little money-saver. 😉 #disneyland #disney #family #marissalyda #thebudgetingwife #disneyfamily #budget #budgeting #budgetingtips

What a year… 2022 will go down as one of the best years with the birth of Jack and getting lots of family time. And 2022 will also be one to remember with job loss. But through it all, grateful for these boys and my sweet family. 💙 Happy Thanksgiving. 🍁 PC: @ryanbearded #thanksgiving #thanksgiving2022 #jobloss #newbaby #familyof4 #thankful #boymom
Somehow I never come back.
Every couple needs a spender and a saver.
It’s still crazy to me that we’re a family of 4! Love my boys. 💙 PC: @ryanbearded #marissalyda #boymom #momofboys #familyof4
A Sunday for the memories ❤️ Jack was dedicated at church today. We ate s’mores. Jack rolled over for the first time! And we enjoyed some family time on Jacob’s last day of his 16 weeks of parental leave as he goes back to work tomorrow. It’s been a sweet summer that I don’t want to end. But grateful for the time off and the memories for our family. ❤️ #motherhood #marissalyda #babydedication #smores #maternityleave #payernityleave #familyof4

This summer has been so sweet. ❤️ Jack joined our family, Jacob has 16 weeks of parental leave off work, Peter has been growing and learning more and more. Oh. And we got a betta fish that Peter named Goldie. Grateful to spend my favorite season with so much family time. ☀️ #motherhood #marissalyda #maternityleave #boymom #family
Birthday donuts with my boys 💙 So grateful that Jacob has had all this time off for parental leave and we get to enjoy these family days together. Also, hooray for living in Portland where vegan donut options are available for our egg-free boy. #birthday #bluestar #donuts #lakeoswego #bluestardonuts
