Beth and I had our second consecutive Saturday garage sale this weekend, mostly because last week's one was so slow. The power of advertising, I reckon. We had an ad in the local paper this week and got a lot more traffic, and sold almost all of our kid things. The exersaucer...gone. The swing...gone. The bouncy seat where so many baby pictures were taken...gone. We kept a few of our favorite outfits though, so years from now (or right now) we can look at them and say "I can't believe they were ever so little!" But we made about $500 so that beats sentimentality. After the garage sale closed down this weekend we headed out to Fort Wayne to get Missy a birthday present at Toys R Us (I can't believe she's turning 1!) and dinner at Don Pablo's. Sunday we hit some Indiana Spirit Quest geocaches, which were all decorated for Memorial Day. We only did 3, because getting the kids in and out of the car so much usually makes them cranky, but they were in good moods so we could have done more. Oh well. Then we went up to Potato Creek State Park where a bunch of friends are camping. Maybe we'll get back to camping next year. Monday (my day off) was an actual day of rest.
