Me, the kids, and Mrs. Fancher went to Sacred Heart of Mary last Friday. They had a garage sale inside the church. (I find it weird having a garage sale inside the church as I believe selling stuff near God's home is against the Bible, or maybe I just misinterpreted what the Bible say).
Anyhow, the lady who was managing the sale saw Mr. Burrito trying on the Junior Firefighter hat so she gave it to him for free.

I only bought a couple of items. I like this Benihana flower vase from Peru. It was only a buck. It's perfect for my fresh roses. A friend shared a link about an exact vase, they call it Vintage BENIHANA of TOKYO RED FLOWER SAFFLOWER VASE.
I am making myself as busy as I can to fight this feeling of loneliness without my kids at home. I did not imagine missing my son's loud voice but I do!
Link with me every Friday through Color Connection. You can post any color that you like.
Wonderful. These items are fitting perfectly in your place.
ReplyDeleteGreat shots of fun with your children. Carver, ABC-Wed-Team

I LOVE these types of impromptu sales - whilst unexpected and unplanned there always seems to be something shouting out my name!

It would seem weird having a garage sale in side of a church instead of the parish hall.
ReplyDeleteI cried for weeks when my 20 year old son moved out last fall. Weeks. But, it is good for your kids to spend time away from mom-helps to prepare them for the time when they do strike it out on their own.
Lovely photos - don't blame you for missing them.
ReplyDeleteIt's quite understandable that you miss the children. Beautiful photos. Have a nice week even if the children are not yet home.
ReplyDeleteFantastic photos ~enjoy your time ~ children will be back soon~ (A Creative Harbor)
ReplyDeletethanks for coming by ^_^
Looks like you had fun at the sale. If I understand scripture it was the selling of animals for scarfice that angered Jesus. Rather than coming to worship and bringing their scarfices. Just my take on it. It does bother me if it is in the scantuary where I worship though. Blessings, Debbie
ReplyDeleteFantastic finds! ^^ The Benihana flower vase is a steal ;)
ReplyDeleteHere for ABC Wednesday :)

Yay, thanks sis. Wow, I did not know that this is a vintage one yay! At the bottom of the vase there is a word Peru written so I thought that this is from Peru wahhh..
DeleteSo many different churches are doing this now.
ReplyDeleteThe items you purchased turned out really nice when you personalized them.
ReplyDeleteAnd, you've got me wondering where the kiddos are . . . a house is empty w/o the voices of the home, isn't it?
Happy Pink Saturday!
Hi Jenn, they are both in school now so I am all alone. I never thought that I would miss the screaming and stuff but I do!
DeleteI love the church sales. They always have great stuff and your Benihana vase is such a great shape. I love it.
ReplyDeleteI just love it when you post these cute pictures of your children. They always put a smile on my face. The Virgin brings back memories of all of my years in a Dominican girls boarding school. Lots of praying and "Yes, Sister." genie
ReplyDeleteVery nice!
ReplyDeleteThey seems to had fun on the garage sales! Wonderful kids :)
ReplyDeleteNice pics! Have a fabulous week.

With my nest empty, I can say that "I've been there, done that." I totally understand how you miss John (who is at work) and your children. It's good that you're keeping busy. Thanks for sharing your blues.
ReplyDeleteHappy Blue Monday, Rose.
I have missed the sound of kids voices for many years now - mine have kids of their own! You will get used to it, but it will always seem empty! Love your finds - I would think the sale would be better in the parish hall, but then, who am I to say! Love your Benihana vase! That is a great find! And the kids are so cute - having fun!
ReplyDeleteLooks like they're having fun. Happy RT2.
