Garage Sale finds

This years adventures in garage sales has been fun and fruitful with Christmas stuff.
As you can see this weekend we found another house for the village, a checker board with Santa's and several Santa's.



This week we found more Santa's, glass ornaments with old boats in them and a doll for 50 cents


We found this stuff on Memorial weekend before going to the lake house for a party. A red blouse, Charles Dickens Christmas stories and a plug in light up ceramic Christmas tree.

We have been lucky to be able to enjoy this time together a lot this year. One Saturday morning we got to go to a neighborhood yard sale with Kati Ann. She was fun cause she really got into it. She would see the stuff in a driveway and yell out ready another one. She liked looking at the stuff and the stuff people would give her.

Ledgens and the weather

OK, so I haven't been keeping up with everything. So many things have happened in the past two months. I guess I can spend the time to catch up.

Kenny asked me to take photos of the Ledgens of the Pit.

The first Sunday night in April it was Tower of Tubes. I didn't know what to expect but it was a blast. Got a few good photos and a change to talk with some students. The the next two Sunday nights were in the pit at church and They were fun! More time to talk with the students and a good chance to get to know a few more. The rains have come for most of a month now. The first night for tubes we didn't get rain. The next Sunday night it rained at the very end. The third Sunday we were stormed out and had to make up the next week. That night it rained as well. The following Sunday we played inside because of tornatos in the area. We still have the finals this weekend.
Speaking of tornados we had many come through Alabama and some were close to the lake house. Here are a few photos of the damage
