This is a sad day.
My dad and brother left this morning (after amazing Cinnamon rolls of course). Being a boring 5 hour drive away from them, I love having them here!
Sadly, I don't have many pictures from this weekend because......
*deep breath* I spilled a water bottle in my purse and soaked everystinkingthing in there.....
ughhhhhhhhhh.
But here's what I do have:
We drank a lot of MD. Good stuff.
Oh yeah... Jason picked up some sticks and then burned them.
?
This baby was CAAAAling my name. Oh you pink evil Schwinn. Fit into my pocket and come home with me!
Logan found some treasures. For some reason, he didn't leave with them.
I love seeing my dad because he always has something cool and insightful to show me. Things like scripture, book gems, or songs he's found a love in.
And he "handed down" this purple blanket my grandma made! I think it's fabulous::
Please disregard my semi-high face. Doesn't this look like it belongs in a fancy house with all kinds of beautiful things?!
Maybe I'm crazy.
I am not sure if you are continuing with the challenge of not to buy new clothing but I thought I would share this with you. It was an article on unnecessary upgrades and spending that will cost you in the long run. This is what they had to say about buying new clothes for your wardrobe.
ReplyDeleteWant to spend money so it makes you happy? Then stay away from a luxury-lined closet. Research from the University of Chicago and University of Wisconsin-Madison found that spending money on leisure activities can boost happiness, while spending on material goods such as clothes does not. That's because leisure spending often boosts relationships with friends and family members, and that, in turn, makes us happy.
That means the savvy consumer should skip retail therapy, and plan a vacation instead.
Just thought it was interesting.
ha. this made me smile and cry all at the same time. you are too sweet!
ReplyDeletebt the way, we have a bright royal blue blanket that pairs up nicely with that purple one (sorry Jason).
Happy Birthday TOMORROW!!!!!!!
