Its so fun shopping for girl's clothes.
Faith thought this dress made a great blanket for her baby.
My big splurge- a knit dress and jacket from Gymboree. (I paid $16) Its SO cute.
Most of our "bounty" other than the toys & books my kids were dragging away while I tried to take the picture!This weekend has become one of my favorite family traditions, City Wide Garage Sales. My Mom and Charlene both came to join me in my biannual bargain hunting. We had a lot of fun, although not as many funny memories as other weekends. Here is a roundup of our great deals:
-A toddler cash register for $2.50 for Faith, Grace got a big girl one for her birthday and now Faith can play Grocery Store too.
-A Beauty Shop for $4. Grace was doing her ritual of asking what our favorite part was at dinner (from Dora). Grace stated her favorite part was this fun find.
-Fisher Price Dump Truck for FREE. I asked the man if he would take a dollar, he said you can have it. (not sure why either)
-A cool big basket for $.50. I heart baskets, especially cute cheap ones.
-A ugly fur covered stool for $2 which I already recovered with black fabric and works great with my desk.
-A tractor floor puzzle for $2.
-A Minnie Mouse costume for $1, maybe for a future Halloween.
-Assorted books, toys, & fun for the girls.
This is the first time Grace showed excitement at checking out the sales. A future yard saler in training!
(BTW: That is my new red couch in the background of the picture, notice it is not in the basement. But more on that later...)
