A little like Christmas

Photobucket

It is consignment sale season and this first one was this past week! I am not a big consignment sale shopper. I find if I go with any expectations I usually end up frustrated and disappointed, but the sale is good for some things. I browse the toys just to get something new and different for the kids to play with and maybe a few clothes as well. This year I was surprised to find a kitchen with food and uteniles for $20. What a score!

Perhaps I would be a better mommy if I put all these new toys away and brought them out one at a time as needed. I have done that with a few of them because somebody's birthday is next week! But I like to leave them out in the morning and listen to the boys be surprised when the see their new treasures. Yes, it is a little like Christmas.

Oh my gosh!!! I can't believe that was still there when you got there! I TOTALLY would have snatched that up if I'd seen it.
Great work!
Merry Christmas to you all!

We love consignment sales! We get all the kids big toys from them (or Goodwill!). Great find!

If your little guys are anythign like mine, all that food will soon have many new homes...NOT in the kitchen - I hate the food:)
