it didn't rain! i was the most happy ever! it went really well. we made some dollars but we didn't sell EVERYTHING...so we're going to do it again in July.
we decided to do it only on sunday because it was supposed to pour all day saturday. well it didn't end up raining but as it turns out, we needed that full day of dry weather to get our stuff spruced up and ready to sell! it was so fun. lindsey greene, matt and i took turns playing with quinn, spray painting, and organizing.
then we had friends over for slow-cooked carnitas, a bon fire, strawberry shortcake (courtesy of nick dunn), and an extreme haircut for my very good friend natasha!

| nick teaching quinn how to use his iphone. crap. |
 |
| the back of natashas head, pre-cut. it's the closest thing we have to a 'before' shot |
 |
| after!!!! so cute |
 |
| all the hair on the ground...SO MUCH hair! |
 |
| my sweet husband and our baby. he's been wanting to have a bon fire for weeks so he was pretty excited. |
| after everyone left and we were so exhausted, i got a text from my brother that he needed to get picked up from the airport at 10:30. i basically drove the 25 minutes to get him half asleep and then when i got home, i was too tired to get ready for bed so i stayed up even LATER! it was such a bad plan. waking up at 6:30 sunday morning to set up was for reals the death of me. the lovely lindsey brought me coffee, bless her heart. i'm pretty sure she's the most selfless person i've ever met. | |||||||||||
people came, a few of them bought stuff, and at the very end, we sold Juanita! she was the computer desk that we painted and loved on. we even got adorable hardware from anthropology for her. guess who bought her! my pot smoking, pot dealing, CREEPER neighbor who could NEVER fully appreciate her cuteness. oh well...at least we sold her and we have room in the garage for MORE THINGS! hee hee. oh my poor husband.
we ended the perfect long weekend at the neighborhood bbq down the street. i sadly didn't get any photos, we only actually knew 2 of the families out of probably 10, so it would have been weird to run around snapping pictures. i SHOULD have gotten some pictures of quinn hanging out with the chickens in their backyard and saying 'bock bock bock bock!". it was way cute. it made matt see that chickens CAN be practical and fun! i've been trying to convince him of this since we got married.
i did get this picture of matt and quinn walking home from the bbq because it was quinns 11month bday!! and i always feel i need a picture of him on his month birthdays.
alright, time to go get ready for the blessedly short week. blessings!
