Garage Sale

Last Thursday I cleaned out Lily's closet, because her clothes were starting to not fit. I had a box of bigger sizes from several people, but I realized she still was lacking in a few departments, like shirts, Sunday shoes, and few other things.

So 7am after working at the peanut factory all night (that is a side story I might indulge in one day) I went to the Sienna garage sale. It was a success. I had to sort through many things, but here is what I found for $22. That is 13 things!



And this dress too.And yes, she didn't NEED the cowgirl boots, but they were so cute. And she has this shirt that say "Got Boots" with a picture of red cowgirl boots, that won't fit until next year, but she loves 'em. They were my only indulgence.

Another sewing project...

Whoa, have I been on a sewing kick lately. See here and here. But I went to a garage sale to look for an umbrella stroller and came home with the cutest Gap skirt and empire waist shirt. The shirt looked pretty easy to copy, and I couldn't make the shirt without making a hat. Total cost: $.70. It is a nice thing kids are so small, and take so little clearance material from Walmart.

On a different note...I love jeans...especially skirts. my favorite outfit last year was her jean overall dress (it would go with any shirt) and now I think it is this skirt (again because it is cute and goes with any shirt. (and cost $2 at a garage sale).

I think this outfit will have to say hello to Grandma on Friday.

I like the light in this one too. Not so much detail of the clothes, but definately a beautiful profile shot out the window.



This is Lily's personality. Ride the horse so hard till it tips over.

Here is the whole outfit. I do like making her cute.
