garage sale...before and after

So...the garage sale was a success! We all were thrilled with our proceeds--at least *I* was! Plus we got to sit around and chat and get tan/sunburned for 3 whole days! Can't beat that!

Here are some before and after pictures of all our 'stuff'....

The night before, packed solid into the garage:

Actually, it wouldn't all fit in the garage, so some was on the porch....

Bright and early, day 1:

Evening of day 3, packing up our 'Goodwill' bags and making our 'ebay' piles:

And of course I couldn't leave out these cuties! Who were DEFINITELY NOT for sale!

Fun under the 'house' made of chairs and a tablecloth. You can't see it, but they were proud of the grass in their mouths.....

Now, we are well on our way to completing 'Baby Step 1' of the 'Total Money Makeover' (Dave Ramsey) YAY!!!!!!

Needless to say, I am exhausted after last weekend and am just now starting to feel like I can focus again! On to the next thing....which is finishing school. We plan to be done the end of this week. Hmmm, that's tomorrow.....might have to do a little on Saturday, but OH WELL! Bring on the SUMMER!!!!!

m.i.a.

...that's what I've been!

Things are crazy busy these days. Cornhole season is starting up and I'm starting to sew bags again...Planning a garage sale here the last weekend of April...Finishing schoolwork...In the middle of a Beth Moore Bible Study (and on the Women's Committee at church)...You name it!

Trusting you had a blessed Easter weekend, celebrating the Risen Savior! It's only because of His resurrection that we even have hope! Praise His holy name!

Oh, here's some photos of something else I've been up to lately!



I've made these super cool purses for friends/family and have more to make/sell! Interested?! They are a great size, with 3+ pockets inside and sell for $40.
Here are photos of material for ones I will be making....



And here's the one I'm currently working on...




Well, that's all for now...must get back to work! Blessings to you all!
