YAY… I finally had the opportunity to go yard sale shopping today.  I LOVE  yard sales, and we’ve been itching to go all spring.  Yard sales are one of the best places in the world to find homeschooling resources.  They’re also a great place to find other things that a tight-budgeted family of 9 might need. 

Here’s what we came home with today:

• 2 oil painting prints (one is October Morn by Robert Wood, I LOVE this, my mom had a print when I was little, and I just loved it)
• A huge chalkboard, with tray.
• A 6’ stepladder
• A brand new curling iron, still in the box
• 3 huge packages of wafer cookies
• A lovely yellow table lamp, with tulips on it
• A nearly new bike for Rachel
• A little 15” black & white tv
• A lovely patchwork paisley dress for Ruth
• A chair

All that, for a whopping grand total of $30.25  You read that correctly, thirty dollars and twenty five scents, for all that. 

Yes, I love yard sales.
