It's been a busy few weeks. We have had lots of fun doing some fall things.
The most exciting thing ever...well not really ever, but it's pretty exciting. I found this crate last year at a yard sale. It was the first time I had ever seen a Campbell's crate other than in a museum. So, I needed to have it for my kitchen. It was marked $50.00. YIKES! My frugal mom talked them down to a whopping $45.00, but I just couldn't splurge. $45.00 bucks is a lo of money. So, this year...I went back to the same yard sale searching for the crate with every intention to spend $50.00 or more on it if they still had it. This crate was so important, I drug my son to the yard sale who was recovering from the flu, and had to drag myself off the couch also recovering from a touch of the flu. I was covered in sweat searching the sale for the crate. I had the owners searching for it too. Finally, I saw it. The price tag was on the bottom and took forever to find. There it was...$20.00! A whole year passed and they knocked $30.00 off the price! I was so excited. I had every intention of going home, cleaning it, and displaying it right away, however, I still felt horrible, so I crawled back on the couch and displayed it in the morning when I felt better.
