the heavens opened up baby.

what I love even more than a good garage sale is a good NEIGHBORHOOD garage sale.

all that goodness within a few blocks of each other - BLISS ;-)

todays treasures:

1 hat box full of antique linens (doilies and lace table clothes) FREE

1 HUGE wheel barrow FREE

4 fishing poles $15

2 metal cafe chairs with amazingly adorable upholstery that just happens to match the girls rooms $5 ea.

1 sewing box (been looking a long time!!!) $1

1 tackle box $.25

2 big bags of littlest pet shop, 2 polly pocket 'houses'/hospital, 2 dress up dresses (and I'm getting really picky there), dress up shoes and toy vacuum - $10

bathing suit and 2 baby outfits for neighbor $2.50

and after that we officially had no more room in the car and we were starving.

that was our cue to stop - if it hadn't been for those two things.....I THINK I'D STILL BE THERE!!!!

(THE BEST NEWS OF ALL!!!!! Lydia and Samantha, at least, share my enthusiasm here!

I let them all take turns getting out of the car at our different stops - that worked great!!!)
