I Bought A Christmas Gift

November 16th, 2008 at 06:21 pm

Yesterday, I took my parents, sis and kids to a very cute antique store here in town. My daughter's just love the store. My DD1 has an apron on her Christmas list. We decided while at the store that she could pick one out for her gift...but that she doesn't get it until Christmas. It was marked at $12, but with their "Pop a Balloon" Sale, I got it for $9! My ballon had a 25% off slip of paper.

Here's what she picked:

The family was in town to celebrate my birthday which is tomorrow. We visited the botanical garden...free admission for all of us with our membership. Lunch at botanical garden, paid by my parents. They also treated us to bowling! Unfortunately, my score was the lowest ever. I had a 28!! My daughters had higher scores because they had the bumbers up! LOL! I did better the second game with a 78! Can you tell I'm not a professional? I was just having an off day.

DH is still out of town for another 5 days. This is not the first time he's been away on my day, but I'm a big girl and can handle it. Tomorrow I'll share what I purchased for myself!

I treated them all to Apricot Chicken in the crockpot from this

website. We also had mashed potatoes, salad and apple pie from the local orchard (2 blocks away). Yummy!!

It was a nice day celebrating with family.

I have ebay auctions ending today. I will sell at least 4 of the 10 items I have listed. There seem to be quite a few people watching...so I'm hopeful for some good returns. I'll update in a day or two.

    Happy belated birthday!

    I love to bowl, but I am not good at it. I've made it over 100 a few times, but my average is more like mid 80s, if that much. Smile
