Garage Sales

I love garage sales. This past weekend I got to go up to South Whitley and go to their annual town garage sale. I love going there. You can find anything up there from nice glasses to guns. My mom and I always go up to Huntington to visit our close friends Zach, Jennifer, and their daughter Piper. We always have such a great time up there and find wonderful things at the garage sale. I only found a couple movies this time, but that's ok since I didn't have much money. I did find a beautiful .303 Lee Enfield rifle, but it wasn't worth the asking price since I would have just resold it.

I love spending time with Piper. She is the most well-tempered, wonderful little girl ever. She is always so cheerful and very well-mannered. I want to all my children to be like her. South Whitley is near an Amish town so there were a few horse and carriages. Every time she heard one coming, she would say "nay-nay". It was really cute. She is just so much fun to be around.

Raquel found a lot of good deals at the garage sale. She got two first edition books for $1 each when they could be sold for $30-50. She finally got a pair of animal clippers for only $10. She also got a beautiful looking dress that sold new for $90 for only $30.

Piper came home like a champ with tons a new toys and clothes. I guess that's what happens when you have a granny who thinks you are the only grandchild in the world. ;-)

I can't wait to go again next year and I look forward to all the other ones this summer.
