Today was the Terry-Taylor Garage Sale. It is an entire neighborhood that has a garage sale every year on the first Saturday in August for about the past 20 years. It's quite a big deal around here! It's like a redneck Mall of America!

they even had '63 (I think) Impalas
our couchesThis year we had a mission: to find a new couch set for our family room. We left at 7:45 for the official 8am start, but by the time we got there (5 minutes later) it was already a madhouse! People had arrived as early as 5:30 to get a parking place and a jump on all the good stuff.

But we were successful and found what we needed and a little bit more, including a Christmas gift for my sister!

my newest project for the dining room
the most dinosaur-y cd rack ever!
now our family room looks better and is
MUCH more comfortable!

Great finds!!! We are all for garage sales here! I got an entire basket of clothes waiting for Corbin that look brand new and I don't think I even paid 5% of what I would have retail! It has actually become a little bit of an obsession for me! Your family room looks really nice!
With all your new furniture, your livingroom has been transformed! Good for you! It looks great and I know everyone is enjoying it. Nothing better than a good bargain, especially when it's something you've been needing for awhile. God is good!
Thanks for your prayers. We are celebrating 20 years of marriage tomorrow. It's been an amazing journey.
Have a terrific week!
