Weekend Treasure Hunt.....

What a fabulously fun weekend! Weather was absolutely wonderful. The weekend started out busy...plenty of trim work and crown molding to be touched up, filling in nail wholes is not to much fun. Saturday morning we all got up early to hit up a HUGE community yard sale. I haven't been to a good yard sale in a long...LONG time. I had heard great things about this sale so we decided to go and have a look for ourselves. It started out slow. Nothing but total junk. You would think people living in million dollar houses would put their junk to the curb but they were trying to sell it...and asking crazy prices at that. Just when we thought we would walk back to our car and leave...we hit a few that were better. So we kept walking. That place was huge we definitely got a work out walking and pushing strollers up and down the mountain....that was a plus. The kids were loving it. In the end i got a few things and i was pleased. I wouldn't say i made a hall but still it was fun. Family time, exercise, and some sun on my face. :)
Here is a pic of what i found......

2 white roman shades, Lamp, 2 picture frames, 2 sets of candle holders, and that Blue thing you see(i will be making that into something soon)....i think in it's past life it was a calendar holder. I got it for a dollar. When i picked it up i knew exactly what i was going to do with it. Not pictured is a stainless coffee bean grinder.


Framed mirror and metal planter.

Yes, all i got was decorative items. I didn't even look at the clothes (we have plenty). I had a mental list of things that i would like to find and i actually got a few of those things so for me....it was worth it. I only spent...wait for it.....$25! Not to bad. :)

We left around lunch time to come home. We were expecting the hubbies parents. Once they got here we handed over the kids and the hubs and I had a date night. Sunday i got out and mowed the yard for the first time of the season. I actually love to mow. It is relaxing for me. We have a large back yard...it takes me 2 hours (flying) to get it all done. The last time i mowed i was 37 weeks pregnant. :P

Well the weekend wore me out...so i'm off to have a relaxing day with the kids.
