    Saturday Social!

    Oh man, it’s saturday already!  We’ve got lots going on here.  We are outside having a yard sale trying to get rid of all this JUNK!  Once it’s gone I’ll feel so much more like we’ve actually moved into a home and not a big closet!  I’ve got this great story to share with you all today.

    When we first moved in, we didn’t have a kitchen table.  We’d been using our desk as our table and the card table as our desk in the apartment.  Now that we owned a home, I wanted a real table.  So last saturday morning we went on a hunt.  First place we stopped was a storage unit auction.   I had never been to one of these before, so I didn’t know what to expect.  We found the perfect table!  Oh so perfect! Then we found we had to buy everything in the unit with it, and clean it out that day.  So a couple hours later and it’s all sitting on the side of our house.  We definitely found some interesting items, including the cremated remains of somebody.  In case you ever need to know, if you have this same situation, you call the police and they book it as evidence. 

    So finally today, we’re getting it sold, gone, out of here!  I feel like I can breathe in the house again!

    Isn’t this the perfect table!!  It was definitely worth all the other junk.

    We had so much fun yesterday celebrating Earth Day!  Despite what the weather said it was going to be (rain, snow, all over yucky) it was quite sunny, with just a little nippy wind.  So of course we spent a good portion of our day outside.  
    We started the morning off with blueberry muffins, orange slices, and some bacon
    Then we went out for a walk.
    We spent the rest of the morning putting peas in the garden and just enjoying the sunshine while it lasted.  Also as part of Earth Day we turned the heater down.  It’s still been pretty cold here, but there’s nothing wrong with walking around in a blanket to conserve some energy.
    The afternoon was spent getting ready for today. The baby turns 1 today! I can’t believe how time flies.  We’re still trying to move in, so I had some serious cleaning to do.  We still need to hang pictured today, and break down some empty boxes (which we store and use as needed, no sense in throwing them away!).  I’ll get some pictures up soon of our Family Room (or Hall as hubby wants to call it) as soon as we get the pictures on the wall.
