We spent most of the weekend setting up the new swingset. Friday Josh went and got a 3 ton trailer full of sandbox sand. That night we dug holes and got the swingset into place.

Saturday morning we got up early and headed out to do some yard sale shopping. It was the annual town yard sale and I convinced Josh to come out with me. His sister met up with us and they and the boys hit the East side of town and I did the West side. Items we scored include:
1. Tool box for back of the truck.
2. Two pairs of sandals for TJ, one Cars and the other Spiderman.
3. A Spiderman outfit size 4T
4. Pampered Chef pizza stone with handle.
5. Sunday is special book.
6. Lots of motorcycle toys. (like we need more of these)
7. Razor scooter
8. Fox motorcycle riding outfit for TJ. You can see him doting it in the below picture. Its red and the whole outfit shirt and riding pants cost $3!
9. Nintendo 64 and my favorite game ever...Mario Kart 64! We spent lots of time this weekend playing it. Josh and I had a tournament race Saturday evening. I won the cup.

Saturday night we tended our nephews and niece for a little bit. They enjoyed the Nintendo too. See below.
Saturday afternoon we dug and filled the sandbox under the swingset. It is going to take another load to fill it.

Gage had the first accident on the new equipment. He fell of the swing and cut his forehead.
So sad.

Its raining this morning...hope it clears up so we can go outside!

Wow! It sounds like you got some great deals at the yard sales. I haven't really been able to figure out the yard sale deal. I will have to have you and Angi take me out with you sometime to show me all of your tricks.
I am patiently waiting for some pictures of your new swing set! I remember the day our first swing set arrived. We spent hours and hours on it. TJ and Gage must be very excited.
Your house is looking very good. Fixing up an old house sounds like so much fun. At least until I read your wallpaper stories!
