New Family Member

We have a new little guy running around our kitchen.

Meet our latest edition...


No, we didn't have a baby...


No, we didn't get a dog...




Tate built a robot!

This little guy was a kit was a Christmas gift from Nana Rena. Tate loved putting it together and is thrilled with how it scuttles around the kitchen cleaning up crumbs.

I love that we don't have to feed it or take it out to the bathroom... Way better than a dog!

Now we just need to name him... Any ideas?

Five Dollar Fashions

Five...five dollar... five dollar fashions. OK, I know that was really bad, but I just couldn't help myself. Here's what I found for five dollars or less. (I think I need to work on my staging/ photography skills.)

Corduroy jacket $4.50. (Thank you half off yellow tags!)

Airy raspberry shirt $1.99 (Thrift Store)

Black skirt $4.99. (Thrift Store) I wish I had two of these... I think I will wear it out this summer. Note the waist band on this puppy...it can double as a shirt!

White skirt another $4.99 thrift store find!

Blue and white scarf $ 3.98... Target clearance.

Orange scarf with tiny white dots and white pom pom fringe $1.50 at a yard sale. I will admit this is not a recent find, but it is an all time favorite.
(Click in the picture to see why I love it so much!)

Perhaps my favorite of all...Kiley's $5.00 Brown Boots. (These are so rockin' that we refer to them as a proper noun in our house) Target clearance.

Jackpot!

We went treasure hunting at the thrift store today. Jesse and Tate were extremely patient, but of course, I would have loved more time. Here are some of my fabulous finds...




1. Yeah for ribbon! Yeah for ribbon $1.25. Now I need a project...







2. Ugly candle sticks. $1.99 for the pair. I am planning to try this project I read about at Two Shades of Pink.


Shabby clock . A steal at $2.50 (thank you 1/2 off yellow tags!)


Beautiful drink dispenser. Also $2.5o! Summer is approaching one must be prepared...



We also found a heap of super skirts and airy shirts. Can't wait to get them out of the dryer!
