Garage sale fever

Yesterday we went garage sale shopping for the kids. There was one neighborhood that had 50 families participating! My wild husband got the crazy idea at around 12:30 that we should get up at 6:30 to hit the first sale at 7am. So we rolled out of bed, threw on our clothes and off we went to find the deals. Well I should say only after a pit stop at the local donut shop for Scott. We got some fabulous clothes for both kids, a tickel-me-elmo for Te for .50, some books, and a crib mattress for $12! What great deals! With the adoptions being so expensive we have decided that all the things we need for the kids will have to be second hand or craigs list items if possible. We have been so blessed again by people's generousity with giving us items and having showers for us. My mom and sister are planning a big shower for this coming Friday, I am so excited to see so many friends and family and I it is just another opportunity to celebrate all God has done on our behalf for these two adoptions.
Waiting to see what this week holds,
Laura

I'm so excited to see you on Friday. Yea! We have garage sale fever in our big city on Friday and Saturday, so I'd love to talk to you before then to find out what you want/need that I can set aside for you. Please give me a call or email me this week if you get a chance. Thanks! (Sorry I haven't posted in a while. We've been reading and praying all along, but I was having trouble with my account, but I think it's better now.)
