A Red Wagon

I found this wagon at a garage sale on Friday! Who doesn't love a good deal?!

Saturday [before the rain showed up] Blake went for his first wagon ride.

He loved it so much that as we were heading back up the drive he started screaming like he wanted to keep going so we went all the way around the block. He LOVED it! He was very good at holding on.

I'm afraid to say that it looks like this might have been his only wagon ride for awhile. It seems the rain has returned and might be here till May. Ugh... the long wet season is upon us.

Grage Sale-ing

I haven't really been garage sale-ing since I was in high school. Every time I would go I always felt like I was driving around aimlessly and would come home empty handed. My mom recently has been coming across some great baby finds at garage sales and with a smart phone there are some awesome apps to help track down those garage sales. So since I'm not working on Friday mornings this summer I thought it would be fun to give garage sale-ing a try! And it was a success!!

For $5.50 I got....

Outdoor swing for Blake - $2

 Chair for Blake - $1

Cake Plate (I've been wanting one of these for a while!) - $2

and a Book for Blake - .50 cents!

I was pretty excited about my finds so we decided to go Saturday morning too. The only thing we came home with Saturday was a FREE (and working) garden hose. Not bad. I think garage sale-ing might become our summer Friday morning routine!
