It has begun

Alden and I have an obsession. And with the warmer weather creeping in I feel it coming to the surface. Getting out of bed in the morning on a weekday is a battle, but getting out of bed before 8 on a Saturday in the spring..... that is like Christmas morning, every Saturday.
We are avid garage sale shoppers. And we aren't the only ones, I will tell you that much. Although we are by far the youngest and dare I say, the hippest? I had a meeting last Saturday and I came home to Alden unloading this beauty. He told me it was kind of a lot of money but he really liked it so he just had to get it. I asked how much it was to which he replied, two-fifty.
TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY DOLLARS?!
Nope. $2.50. TWO DOLLARS AND FIFTY CENTS.
The man selling the credenza talked himself down from $5 to $2.50.
Quite a bargain that boy of mine.
Now....where to put it?

Garage selling and a sneak peak
5
Tuesday, May 10, 2011



Alden and I scored big time.
We hit the jackpot of garage sales..... neighborhood garage sales.
At least three garage sales on each street. oh ya.
We went with $36 in cash and left with
- a globe
- small table for the globe
- large standing mirror
- side table
- pink chair
- chandelier
Good thing thrifting is in style.
We MAY just be the most stylish kids around at that definition.
