Lacee's Saturday Garage Sale

It was an interesting morning...kind of chilly, kind of sunny with a fair amount of people, but lots left over. Lacee was concerned, "what am I going to do with all the left over stuff?!" Both she and I took back a few things to keep for people we knew would appreciate them. I gave all Lacee's Barbie stuff to the little girl catty-corner from us. Then I was about to walk across the street to the other kids I thought would like some of the things, but they began to meet me half way. I began, "Guess what?" I asked them and of course they answered, "What?" I told them, "Everything is 100% off. Do you know what that means?" They shouted "It's free???" So, it began and the hands were almost quicker than the eye!




This was a sign Cliff, Ashlee and I made for Lacee's 16th birthday, surprise, bedroom make over and I was glad it was in good hands.

This little guy was shopping for his mom saying, "My mom will really like this," about every second!

It was like having Piranha cleaning us out...we only had a group of Indian corn left (on the table by the tent trailer) and a few clothes. It was amazing and Lacee's problem of not knowing what to do with the things left over, was solved!!

Here are the Piranha (with concealed idenity)!
