Long time no see!

So things have been a little busy so I have been slacking on the blog. So we will start with me since I'm Queen B, I have been going to a lot of garage sales and estate sales. I usually drag my sis in law Chelsea with me and we have happened to find some awesome deals. I bought quite a few collectibles that I find out on EBay that they are worth quite a bit. My favorite so far is a  Michael Jackson vinyl and some classic Muppet's cups! But I have found things from stamps, 1871 German Bible, vintage sewing kit, old baseball cards, clothes for the kids and lots of toys and one and only Hawaiian glasses from Hawaii that was never reproduced on the mainland. I'm setting up my gold mine now so my kids can retire early! I must mention, I haven't paid more than $10 for any of these items. Except for the newer glass top range and microwave for my sister for $150. I love finding deals and finding treasures! Helping to provide for my family one dollar at a time! Besides all of this, Max took his first poop on the toilet and we called Nana and Ashley to tell them the good news, Mckenna got 2 molars in these past few days and was quite a pill but I can understand. She had a 103 temp for a few days. Now she is all good to go and back to her diva self!

Summer Fun!

Trying to hide from Olly so he won't eat her ice cream







Found her way to the junk drawer



There seems to be a theme. Ice cream is the #1 food in our house! So much so we had to put a lock on the freezer!


Bonfires in the backyard. My fav!

2 molars coming in. Her face says it all!

We have a lot of frogs. He is trying to catch one in his water stations.

New toy from Nana!


She waves at everyone!










Fun at the park and brought lunch from Nana's work! Its a routine we do a few times a week. We go get food where Grandma works then go to the park.

Congratulations Nicholas!

My sister Raynell gave a shadowbox of all the medals our dad received during the Vietnam War.



















We went to Eugene, OR to watch my brother graduate from the University of Oregon.
