I hope your (i)NSD celebration was a fun one! I didn’t get to participate in the celebration this year… I was busy traveling and running. But of course, I did make sure I scored some deals. HAHA!!
Yesterday the first of many spring field trips begun. I just LOVE this time of year. Just because I’m able to participate and chaperon the kids on their field trips. It just gives more of a view of how they interact with their friends and classmates, and is just so neat to spend more time with them. Sophie’s class went on a hike, did some nature things, then we went to the local zoo where they each gave a speech on their chosen Minnesota native animal. It was pretty fun…. well, except for the 90degree weather we got. How can the the weather can change from 35degree one day, to 90 degrees the next.

THEN….. my adventure this week will be holding…. a GARAGE SALE!
We have simply run out of storage in our basement for holding “stuff”. Yep, stack of old clothes and toys, old furniture, etc is literally half way up to the ceiling. So it’s time to get rid of all the older baby clothes and toys. I am a little nervous about how much work this is going to be though. But mostly excited to have all of this extra stuff OUT of my house. If you have done a garage sale in the past or have ANY advice… I’d sure appreciate advice.
Anyhoo, that’s me in a nutshell.
Hope you all are having a wonderful week!

That's awesome – have fun with those field trips!!
My best advice for a garage sale – if you want to get rid of the things – price them to sell. Don't think about how much you really want to get out of it, because more than likely, you'll still be left with it at the end. Remember that the items are NOT being used, and you want to get rid of them. I totally need to do the same thing! I usually just bring my stuff to Goodwill, as it's easier for me. But, to have a garage sale would at least generate a little money. 🙂 Most of all, have fun!!! Good luck!!
