Busy couple of days, at least for me they were. Doctor appointment Friday, mattress purchase, picking boys up from school, taking them to friends for sleepover, picking them back up, Maxel's birthday party, back to town for a bed frame purchase......and a couple of yard sales thrown in for good measure!
Here are my yard sale finds. A Leap Frog toy for Xander $1....
Wall accents 25 and 75 cents!
Cigar box 25 cents....
Purse trinket box 50 cents
Humpty from Puss in Boots movie 5 cents!
16x20 frame $1.50......
Graph paper and three vinyl binders 25 cents each....
But the best find was this turntable, CD and cassette player for $30! This was at a yard sale in the same neighborhood where Justin is putting in a pool. He called me and told me about it. When I got there, he was leaving but got out of his truck and went back with me. I found the turntable and he bought it. It had NEVER been used!!
Here's the pool he's been working on.....
I posted yesterday about Maxel's birthday but here are a few more pictures....
Della.....
Maxel and mommy (Holly)....
My step-great-grandson, Xander.......
My great-grandson, Joshua, and my daughter, Janet.....
"Miss Thang" was prissing around in her heels! Slipped and fell a few times but she got right back up!
Here are my yard sale finds. A Leap Frog toy for Xander $1....
I found some hibiscus and knock-out roses on clearance at WalMart...
My daughter, Micki, was able to make the party.....
My mother made this Overall Sam quilt for Maxel. That's my baby sister, Tammy, in the background.
Sloan's friend, Ben, is now a fixture at our house and was kind enough to pose for a picture with his new "dreads". (It's really just a hat with dreads attached!) Doesn't he have dreamy blue eyes?
I had planned on going to the Southern Women's Show this weekend, but that doesn't look like it's going to happen. I guess it's just a 'put your feet up and rest' Sunday!

Very nice pool that Justin is working on! Love your finds for the weekend, but you might be surprised at what sent my heart a fluttering. lol The King Edwards cigar box!!! My dad smoked KE cigars the entire time I was growing up. In his later years he switched to cigarettes. Being that he died at 66 of lung cancer, I certainly wish he would have never smoked, or worked with asbestos, but I can't help having good feelings when I see a KE cigar box. :) <3 Oh my goodness, the little ones are growing up soooo fast! Cute as ever!!
