I decided last minute to join my gym for a canoe trip on the Buffalo River on Saturday. All week the group was concerned the water would be too high to float, but the water level went down just enough to be safe enough for us to go. I took the boys and it was the best...
Last week I told about the really neat table I found at a garage sale and Susan of Sell It Suzie responded telling me tables like mine look great with the top flipped up against the wall. I tried it and love it! Dora loves it too! Dora always has to be in the middle...
Last week was a crazy week with school activities and junkin'. On Wednesday night a neighbor a couple streets over announced in one of the Maumelle Facebook groups she would have a garage sale with vintage items. I went the first time and picked up a Pyrex bowl...
It has been a crazy busy week so far. On Sunday the boys and I attempted to take a family photo but Joshua decided to not join us and hold his sign backwards. He is such a stinker! On Monday, Jim's (Santa) estate auction came to a close and I got some great things to...

Bella Rustina was a success last weekend. During the show Joshua asked multiple times for money for food and I finally realized he was buying crochet animals sometimes. I gave him money for the first couple, but by the end of the weekend he had a whole family of...

Whew! We have a bunch of sales this weekend after a bunch of sales rescheduled last week. I hope you all made it through the storms okay! Between storms I took the boys to see the Minecraft movie Friday night. I've never been so lost watching a movie in my life, but I...
