Garage Sale'n

I am almost all garage-saled out. Last weekend we had a massive garage sale at our house. We typically have one a year after we do a spring cleaning. I don't know how we accumulate so much stuff. Oh, wait... yes I do. My husband collects things off the side of the road. And we have lots of donations. ;)

Anyway, our garage was out of pocket for the week while we filled it with tables and then some. Bright and early at 6a we were out and selling.


My dad is a GREAT help. He comes over and helps hang out with the kids, load up stuff, pack stuff, unpack stuff...and brings pop up tents for shade. ;) He goes and gets us breakfast and/or lunch when we can't stop to do so. I don't know how we'd do it without him. :)

Here he is hanging out with Brenna the day of. (Brooke had gone for the weekend to stay with NaNa).
After our garage sale, we basically packed up the leftovers and took them to Brad's mom's house for her garage sale the following weekend (today and tomorrow). Yes, we are crazy. Two garage sales in two consecutive weekends. Aaaaaahhhhh!!! Anyway, here is Brenna enjoying the moving around part. :)

So we are now in the midst of garage sale #2. This one we are having on Friday and Saturday (yes we are super crazy!) and as of tonight we have gotten rid of about half the stuff over there! We'll see what tomorrow brings. But I swear, after all this....I am DONE with garage sales for at least another year. ;)



PS - I have been trying for days to post other more fun topics/pictures, but stupid blogger is messing up with the picture sizes. Grrr! So, I'll keep trying, but in the meantime all you are left with is this boring garage sale post. :P Sorry!
