A Saturday Afternoon

I was invited to attend a consignment sale a few months ago. I wanted to go check it out so I could get an idea on how to become a consignor. I happened to attend the 50% off day, and found some really great deals on clothes, toys, scrapbook and project items. So, once I attended and learned the in's and out's of consigning, I began my tagging.

I had planned on participating in the Fort Worth sale, but because I had completed all my items my friend Julia informed me that I could participate in multiple sales all over the DFW area. Grapevine's sale was a week away. I dropped off my items and was able to view online what was sold that day (every day for 4 days). I made a whopping $170 bucks! The bigger items sold like hot cakes and most of the clothes were sold. Luckily I had enough (with adding a few more items from the closet) to participate in the Fort Worth sale, too.

Saturday was the 50% off sale for the consignors in Grapevine (last day of the sale) so Greg and I went over there to check to see what was left and see if there was anymore toys. Gabe and Kien joined us and Brandy and Jeremy stayed home to finish chores and watch a movie. The handy dandy stroller works wonders!

This was the sign that was in the door way as we entered into the sale. HILLARIOUS!
Gabe just chillin' with a bottle and Kien was wanting everything!
After the long "torture" shopping event, we decided to stop at an Italian restaurant to eat. Gabe got to color for the first time! Yes, I had to tell him to get the crayons out of his mouth once or twice, but he sure made a pretty picture!
Kien is a pro! He knows just what to do!! :)
