New Red Bowls
Last night I went to 'Vons' to pick up a couple things and saw these great nesting bowls ... I tried to not buy them ..really I did ..but after filling my cart with the stuff I went for .. the cart went right back to where the bowls were ...As hard as I tried not to buy them ..I just had to have them ..Aren't they great?!!But I am proud of myself because this morning I took some things from my kitchen to my daughter's yard sale and sold enough to pay for them."Out with the old and in with the new"
*BIRTHDAYS*
January, February and March are our "birthday months" ... We have so many birthdays at this time of the year that it makes your head spin ... Although every single one of them is so important, we sometimes just can't celebrate each one like we should .. But we all know we are special and that we are loved by our big family.
There have been all kinds of parties and celebrations, some are big and some may be having pizza at our local pizza place ..but we always have fun.
One of the celebrations that stands out in our family memories is the one where my son-in-law invited about 20 people over for an early brunch since my dauther Jennifer works nights he knew she would be sleeping ... he had us all stand around her bed and outside their big picture window were everyone could look in and she could see everyone outside. ...Well, she woke up to a bunch of "fire crackers" that he lit outside the window... Oh yeah! ...It was not pretty when she jumped up out of a dead sleep ... Saying .."what the hell"!!!! along with a few other words #@%$$#&**##@!!!! .. especially when she raealized that there were 15 people standing around her bed.. she wanted to kill her dear hubby ..but she laughed and has never forgotten her 40th birthday ......So that tells you what kind of a family we have ... there's always something that is good for a laugh ...and it makes for great dinner stories.... So I am saying ....* HAPPY BIRTHDAY* to all of us who will be or has been celebrating a birthday .... I love you all ..and I am blessed. :^)
So that gives you an idea of what kind of a family we are ...
Yard sale weekend
Last Saturday was a city wide yard sale in a near by beach town called Morro Bay ...it's about a 15 minute drive from our town ...I went with two of my daughters, Julie and Jennifer. ..They picked me up at 6:30 am ...we wanted to be the "early birds" so we could get the best "prizes" ..of course everyone else had the same idea ... Tina, our oldest daughter also followed in her car with cousin Pam ... we had to take two cars to have enough room for our treasures ... good thing we did take two cars because they were both 'packed' when we came home ... It was such a fun day. One of the things I bought was a service for 12 set of Spring looking dishes .. but when I put them on my table they just 'didn't work for me' ..so Tina is going to try to sell them at her yard sale next weekend.... You can't win them all.
la la la ..Happy birthday to you " ..la la ..happy birthday to you ...la la...Happy birthday 'Dear Yolanda" ..happy birthday to you ...la la la
Oh how funny, I try really hard to not buy things too, but it calls my name and then it's all over.

LOL! Your shopping restraint is greater than mine. Those bowls would have been in my cart on first sight.
ReplyDeleteI loved all your Halloween decor.
