Well, it is the last weekend of freedom for both the kids and me- so to make it really worthwhile we spent the entire day yesterday going to thrift stores! Jill is still a little uneasy about thrift store clothing, but after showing her that there are Gap, Justice, Limited, Old Navy, etc. brands, she may be a believer! Caroline loves looking at toys, books and housewares. Especially glass housewares. Fun for me, glass-holder interference master.
Thrift Store finds certainly abound here in the Seattle area. BFOD (best find of the day) will have to go to the 99 cent pristine-condition Battleship game that Jill and John played last night. We have yet to hit the Goodwill Outlet in Seattle or the biggest-ever, reputation-precedes Salvation Army also located in Downtown Seattle. All in due time!
I am off today to paint the remainder of our "craft room." We have decided to dedicate the fourth bedroom to being a place where the girls (well, John is certainly welcome) can be store and create crafts. We picked a lovely green for the walls and will accent with black- Jill loves the color and so do I. If Caroline had it her way there would be rainbows on every wall! Pictures to come very soon of our Craft Room Paradise.
