garage sale...day 2
well hello most random group of photos.
day 2 garage sale...not much to report. i added things. some things were bought. some things were not. i gave a lot away as well. you should have come.
in case you're wondering, front right = strawberry shortcake roller skates. for $1.50
yah, i know i'm good at making signs. we've already declared that.
my dad on the left. my twin brother, mitchell in the middle. my older brother, michael on the right...chillin.
do not know why i took this photo. but the christmas bulbs are pretty!
ohhhhh....look at the s berry shortcake skates reflecting all bad ass.
cabeen came over again, and he brought us these!!! from his garden.
not lying when i say they were the best tomatoes i have eaten all summer.
i tried so hard to share, when really i wanted to eat allllll of them myself.
don't know who snapped this, but we decided that i probably scared all the customers away with the heart painted on my face and/or the tie dye shirt.
mitchell said everything BUT the paint on my face was scaring people away.
awww, i love my brothers.
on that telephone pole, there is a cardinal. and they have the best song...mitchell and i were listening to it.
ohhh...at the end of the day, mitchell and i were packing up, and this boy..his name is Emanuel. he's so sweet. He doesn't seem to have many friends. so, well, he was looking around and i said "take whatever you want, free of charge"...he said "uh, ok"
and whoa did he! in one box, he put books, the whole jewelry box with jewelry in it (old stuff, nothing that any of you would want), glasses, oh and the Grinch dressed in a santa outfit (that was the first thing he grabbed)....
me typing this is NOT gonna do this story justice, not at all. anyway, he left, then within minutes came back with his dad in the van. the dad got out and instantly lit a smoke. they put all the stuff we marked "free" in their van. then got the heck out. (i mean, we marked stuff like a reindeer with broken antlers, shower curtain rings, old shoes, girl clothes...oh, just the most random shit, as free)
if you see me, and you want me to tell you this story in person, it might be better. actually, ask mitchell to tell you. or, both of us?! Emanuel kinda got hooked. but also, proves that one mans trash is another mans treasure. or whatever. he was soooo thankful for the free goods. i mean totally psyched when i handed him an old dirty record player that probably doesn't work. he ruled.
when he put that whole jewelry box in his box, and walked away dropping old pairs of glasses, mitchell and i were dying.
i'm sorry for wasting your time with this story. it blew my mind.

garage sale...day 1...
today went pretty good. could have gone better, if the city didn't take my 8 garage sale signs down...but we found a way around that! :)
just look at that signage
parked grams car on the corner......haha.
miss abigail got a fairy and a lot of bangle bracelets. i made her put that barbed wire jelly bracelet on! sooo awesome. she's the cutest.
here is the sale in full effect. look at abby...front and center. amazing.
this is gabriel. he found him a phone to talk to his friends on. could he be cuter?! ahh
cabeen in his spot for the day. he was my number one supporter!
posing with some ridiculous dolls, that are STILL in the garage sale.
steve posing like the doll that tonya is holding up, ... inside joke.
this hat went home with cabeen. he deserved it!
this is one of the things michael saved from the sale.
he said "things like this make me comfortable in the night"
hmmmmmm mmmmmmm....scary. :)
g mcalpin rummaging through
table o'goodies
the guy across the street was trimming his tree...and he knocked out a squirrel nest. i was soooooo sad, he was just letting them lay on the sidewalk. ... so i picked them up and made them a little nest of their own. 4 little tiny babes. he let me keep the nest-box under the tree the rest of the day...maybe their momma will come back for them?!
they are amazing!
ok, so this monkey has a pearl necklace and a lace cape...DRESSED BY CABEEN!!!
i caught him in the act, he was just sitting under the tree making this monkey all fancy and shit, i never knew the monkey was a girl until today. it all comes out in the end.
BARBIES!!!!! (dressed by cabeen and i---so awesome to sit outside and dress barbies with one of your favorite people!)
look at the ken..he's got a crop top and pegged pleated pants. so awesome.
these are the two items cabeen walked away with. fully deserving of his gold.
met this little guy checking out some plates. haven't seen a praying mantis in a while, and it was a super tiny one. i'm hoping he's one of a million little babies in the back yard. I LOVE PRAYING MANTIS!
AWESOME!
p.s. THAT KITTY THAT WAS LOOKING FOR A HOME...SHE FOUND ONE TODAY!!!! yesss
p.p.s. i just walked outside to get my grams car from down the street, and what did i see you ask? .... MOMMA SQUIRREL PICKING UP HER LAST BABE!!! she was taking them to a new tree 2 houses down. man, that feels good.
