Our First Garage Sale

Our housing edition does a community garage sale twice a year- and it is huge.  So, this time around we took the plunge and had our very first garage sale.  For all the time it took to get ready, I thought we had a fair amount of things to sell.  Until we got them all set up outside- um, not so much!
Here's our little setup!  
Jared and Tori had breakfast outside while manning the garage sale! (I'm really wondering if we should have sold waffles for our sale- we may have done better!)
 Tori had a grand time being Daddy's helper and getting to eat outside!
 Mommy and Garrett took a turn at the garage sale while Daddy went in search of clothes for Garrett!
 Garrett had a ball bouncing to his heart's content in the garage!!!
Tori loved playing with everything she could get her hands on!  The socks she is wearing were in the garage sale, but no more!
 What a silly face!
So, our grand total earnings for the day- we made a whopping $10.30!!!  Hurrah for our first garage sale!  And then we spent a total of $11.45 for all of these cute new clothes and shoes for Garrett!
Our take on the day, we basically traded things we no longer were using or wanted and got new stuff we do need and want- we just swapped!  And, even better, we got a whole bunch of stuff out of our house!  I'd say we had a pretty productive day!!!
