Garage Sale for Utah
We had a garage sale this weekend...we have never had one before, so it was a new experience for us. We did great! Megan had some of her jewelry outside and she sold a few pieces. We earned enough money to pay for our gas to get to Utah and back...so we are planning a trip out there in October. It feels so nice to be rid of a bunch of stuff we didn't need anymore. When it was all over I packed up what was left in the back of the van and took it to Goodwill. What a lovely feeling to let it go.....

When are you coming?!? It would be fun to see you again! Angie
Oh I love gargage sales. We do one every year. It is such a great feeling to get rid of stuff and make money at the same time. Such great times!
K, Angie already said it, but when are you coming? Let's make some plans!!
Yay-I'm excited your coming to Utah. The other day I was wondering when you might come. Hope we can see each other while you are here.
If you don't see me while you're here, I'll never read your blog again!! Seriously, when are you coming and when are we having a BIG girls' get-together????
What a great reason for a garage sale! Maybe you could time it so that you are here for a Balmoral GNO?!
I love to rid myself of stuff...we don't have the patience for doing a garage sale ourselves, but we make a lot of donations to DI throughout the year. My children know that every summer and again right before Christmas, they'd better have a pile of stuff to say good-bye to.
On the flip side, everytime I take a load to DI, I am discouraged by how much "stuff" we have that we don't use or need. Consumerism at its best unfortunately.
We're coming the last week in October...the kids are out of school that whole week. YES I want to see all my girlfriends!!!! I am in great need of a GNO!!!! Let's plan it!
I cant wait to see you!
That's awesome! I hope to see you, too! Doesn't it feel so good to get rid of some things sometimes? It has been far too long since I've gone through our stuff! I think you've inspired me to do it again! (And, believe me, Matt will thank you!)
