Our foster sons Jeremy and Dustin. They are just adorable.. This was before we got on a plane to Disney.. They were so excited!!!

What a terrible person, I have a blog and do nothing with it... Well I plan to change that.. We have been so busy with our foster sons that I do not even know what day of the week it is.. LOL!!!
It is my favorite time of the year, Garage sale time!!! WOOHOO!!!! I love to garage sale... I look so forward to it on Friday's and Saturday's... It is amazing what you find.... This was the first weekend garage sale in a subdivision just down the road from us and what great things I did find... We usually have one great find of the year and this years most likely will be the grill that my husband spotted... It was $30.00 and looks brand new, he is so excited about it. We cleaned it up yesterday and what a find... I also got some summer shirts and shorts for the boys for $.50 to $1.00 a piece. I found a great Lego table for $20.00 that also came with 2 chairs. I also found a great play kitchen for $20.00 and a wonderful bakers rack for my craft area for $10.00. If I feel that prices are fair I will not ask them to take less but if I feel the prices are kind if high I will try and negotiate but I usually feel that the prices are more then fair... I pretty much outfit the boys from garage sales. They grow so fast and get their clothes so dirty I hate to pay full price for them... I have gotten many clothing items with price tags still on them... I just love it..
And yes we have 2 foster boys that came to live with us last April. They are a handful but are the sweetest little guys who just need lots of love... They are doing wonderful and have come so far in a year. We are actually going to be able to adopt both of them so we are very excited about that. They are 3 and 4 and their names are Dustin and Jeremy... It is amazing what children in foster care have been through. You just do not realize how many children are out there that just are neglected and abused... The whole process has been a very big eye opener for Kevin and I but we love the boys as if they were our own. I would be lost without them...
Well, the weather is just beautiful here today and I have 2 little boys that want to go outside and play so I better get off of here. I will post pictures of the boys and our great garage sale items.. Any garage sale questions just ask...

Have a great one!!!
