Was kind of a long day today, but fun for the most part. B/c it is Saturday we decided to load up and hit up some garage sales and also some book sales. We hit it pretty big with the book sales, and if we sell all the books we purchased we should make about $150, off of maybe.....30 books...bought most of them for like $.25/$.50, and there were a couple that we bought for a dollar or two. So...this will be my job for the most part, along with being a stay at home mom. We are hoping that we'll be able to provide some sort of 2nd income from our book sales. A few of Chuck's coworkers are doing rather well with it. One of them actually does the book hunt/sale as a full time job since she retired from CMH last year. So yea, hoping this will help us get along so we can pay off our vehicles a bit faster and possibly help out so we can get a great home loan!!! Pretty exciting.
Didn't really hit any good garage sales, found Allison's Halloween costume for this next year for $.25!!!! Great buy if you ask me!!! But don't ask what she'll be, you may just have to wait until October to find out!!!
It was a whopping 81 degrees here in Kansas City today. Excellent weather. We just came back in from the front yard. We planted some seeds that are suppose to form a Butterfly Garden, so hopefully in about 2 or 3 weeks we'll have a great variety of annuals and perrenials popping up along the front driveway. And if I'm lucky....I'll be able to see some butterflies come in for a landing. I didn't get into the dirt soon enough to plant any tulips, but I'm pretty sure they would have been killed off when we had that freezing cold weather about a week and a half ago.
So may have to go find something to plant along the front of the house, all that is there now is a pile of....weeds??? grass and dirt too!!! Oh MY!!!
Oh and for the count down.....39 days until we are off to Jamaica!!! However, we are still waiting for mine and Allison's passports, so hopefully they'll arrive soon. I'm expecting them to arrive in the mail the day before we leave! That way I'm all stressed out about not being able to go and yadda yadda yadda!!! But no worries, I'm sure we'll get them sooner than that, if not, I guess Chuck will be the only one going....along with the Groom (we are headed to Jamaica for a wedding) So I guess the Bride and I will just hang out here in Missouri!!
Okay so enough babbling, we've got a movie to watch!!! Hope everyone is enjoying their beautiful weekend!!!
Allison chillin in her carseat, doesn't she just look so relaxed??? I would too if I had someone tote me around all day, feed me and change my underpants!!! :D

Great photo! Brandon and I recently planted some butterfly garden seeds too, though mine are in pots so we'll see what we get. Enjoy the weather, it's warm here too!
My tulips didn't make it because of that snow we got! We had great weather here too this weekend. More Summery than Spring, so that was nice! Looks like you had fun too!
