That's right, we succeeded in doing all we had planned today! We got up early and went to a garage sale. I say a garage sale but it was a whole neighborhood. We ended up buying a few flower vases for a craft I'm doing, two life vest for the kids, and a kilt pin for Brian. (yes they have kilts...that's another post) From there we came back out to Effingham and went to a birthday party for one of Becca's friends. The kids, and John and I, liked the animals. They had baby chicks, mice(ewww), lizards, bunnies, and a baby joey! Dylan loved holding the chicks and did quite well I may add. After cake and ice cream we loaded everyone in the van and went to the Old Effingham Days Festival. They had exhibits showing how life was in the 1800's. Becca got to see how they washed clothes and was thankful we had a washing machine, not as thankful as me though ;) Though today was busy a good time was had by all. Now we are home, the kids are bathed and in bed and all is quiet. Tomorrow we are off to church then there is no telling where we will end up. Each day is an adventure for us.
