Weekend! and a RAK

It's been a busy week with work for both of us. Plus, we're also getting ready for our annual garage sale with Mom and Dad. In looking back, we've been all getting together in New Boston with boxes in tow since the college years. Mom, always puts a cute ad in the newspaper that says "Daughters Home from College Sale" or "Me and My Girls Garage Sale." We have two more weeks before this years sale! I have completely destroyed my Scrapbook Nook going through all my stuffs...we're putting scrapbook goodies in this years ad since I'm planning to share some of my stash for dirt cheap!

I should also mention 'The Rule' which was Nikki's idea. The first garage sale we had, some of us saw something for sale that had been a gift given by another in the family. Well, The Rule was enacted that states you can't have hurt feelings if you see something for sale that you gifted. We talk and tease about it when we see it happen though!

After cleaning out the nook, here's some of the scrap stash that I'll be selling. I'd love to share something with you as a little RAK. Leave a comment on this post and I'll have Thomas pick a random winner on Friday, May 1. You can choose the item of your choice and I'll mail it right out to you for your enjoyment!



Here's a layout from '04 from one of our previous garage sales. We were in the money that year! I hope this years will be as well, we're all three going to redecorate our bathrooms with the profits.



I'm off to enjoy the rest of my day off with a haircut and then I'm meeting Thomas for an early dinner and movie. We're going to see Fast and Furious!

Huggles,
Deana

p.s. to Mom -- RAK = Random act of Kindness

I can't wait for our next garage sale. Just think of all the memories. I remember why the rule was made, I had searched and searched for Nikki a quilt stand, finally found one and there is was at the next garage sale. It did make me a little sad, but its funny now.
