A little more...

After soccer Kate was so close to going to sleep - we drove around a little bit hoping she would fall asleep in the car. We decided to check out some garage sales - i am DESPERATE for a new book to read and i have a horrible time paying retail for books plus used books just have so much more character. We found the BEST garage sale! Everything was half price - i just got one book but found lots of bargains. We literally got a box full of stuff for about $2.50. Here are some of our faves. This beautiful Argentinian bowl set will make perfect snack service for guests - casual enough for OU football games but nice enough for a more formal affair - we got the entire set for FIFTY CENTS!


Jay loves Lion Coffee - you can only buy it in Hawaii so he used to order it and have it shipped in. 2 kids and luxuries like that have gone out the window - so not bunny friendly! He still has his Lion Coffee Coffee Mug and check out this little "LION COFFEE" mug he found for Kate. I hope she cherishes it - maybe even takes it to college?


After Kate's little nap, she and Jay went to my office with me. I have been a little behind on a project through no fault of mine but wanted to go into this next week caught up (as much as possible.) I spent a ocuple of hours and got SO much done! Feels good to have one less thing to worry about. Kate likes my office - she played with the fish outside and ate some Cheese-It's! Jay did a great job keeping her entertained while I worked!

Jay also took Kate to Target while I worked - he found a present for our nephew Draven. He thought it was only fair since we had earlier bought his sister Lillie a "beach house" dress. Anyway, Jay bought Draven a big Halo 3 wall hanging (looks like a poster to me.) He couldn't wait to give it to him so we stopped by on the way home. Kate was just thrilled to see her Aunt Bootsy. She ran right up to the door!


I think Draven liked it!


Kate had a little talk with Lillie, just wish I knew what she said!


Tonight we are hanging at home, having "mike Campbell" burritos and watching "Dan in Real Life" - hope HOPE it is good!

I want to go to the garage sale. I guess it is too late. How was the movie?

Looks like a good garage sale. I need to start getting up earlier on Thurs. and Fri. and hitting some sales on my way to work. It's that time of year! And I'm with you - I don't like paying full price for books (though sometimes I do), but I love getting them for 50 cents or a 1.00 at garage sales!
