We will be in your neck of the woods July 16 for a Full Military Funeral. My FIL passed away last Friday. I can't imagine how beautiful the ceremony will be in Arlington.
ps- i am playing catch up too and did not realize you had not blogged in "real time!"
your Ak lost story had me in tears. I am so amazed you did not lose it completely--I would have. You are a strong woman. Do you realize that? (on many levels)
A wooden play structure is my guess - but te $15 is throwing me for a loop. Can't wait to see what it is! Fun photo of your three littles with Dad's uniformed legs and boots! What a cute photo!
I am so jelous of your good will finds. It is almost tempting to fly out just to go shopping with you! I bet it is some kind of fabulous bedroom set or something crazy like that. It will be something we will all go crazy for and won't believe you only spent 15! So fun!!!
a kitchen-aid or some sort of mixer. i guess that's not that big, but i'd be excited to find that at goodwill for $15! a hot tub would be awesome too...
$15 & it's the biggest thing you've ever bought? i have no idea... i can't wait to find out. can you look for a buffet for me? i want one for my kitchen & have yet to come across anything good. you seem to be the queen at thrifting.
I am back on blogging track. It is Thursday and I am writing about Thursday. Shocker. I have faked my blog posts for almost a week now and have been days behind. YEA for not giving up and finishing blogging what I wanted to.[Image]Jeff's boots and his three girls feet
Today Jeff came home in his military uniform, we don't often get a chance to see him in it(i won't say why) I had to take some photos as he will probably only be wearing it for two more years and I fear this time will pass and I won't have any photos to remember this time. When he came home Sally Jane said, "Dad are those your own boots?" they look so huge and i don't know if she has ever seen him wear them.
i have made two excellent dinners this week if I do say so myself. Salmon with salsa Verde and this awesome potato casserole. Then tonight egg rolls - yum.
but the exciting news is my awesome, amazing awesome Goodwill find on Tuesday. We are setting it up and I will get some photos soon. my hint is that it is the largest used item I have ever purchased that is not a car. i paid $15.00. any guesses?
