Andrew and Emily are moving out of their apartment, so yesterday we had a yard sale. They didn't have a whole lot, so maybe a "driveway sale" is more accurate. Some of the highlights of the day were:
1: Having Em spending the night with us, and waking early Saturday morning to her smiling face! I miss her.
2: Wishing we had donuts, over and over. Even though neither of us really like them, it just seemed like the right thing to have for a yard sale day.
3: Watching Em dicker prices as people offered less than the marked price. She was a tough cookie!
4: Em laying down in the middle of our street in protest of "Drive By" shoppers. I told her I totally do the same Drive By Yard Sale Shopping, too, so I understood.
5. Getting chastised by Em when I donated some goblets to a ladies church group. She deducted $12.00 from my total.
6. Humiliating Andrew and Em by using the binoculars that were for sale to watch the shirtless roofer on the house across the street. They said I was not being sneaky enough. I say "What roofer?" It's just so fun seeing my kids squirm!
We didn't make a lot of money, but sure had a lot of fun!
