Yard Sale!!!!!!!!!!!!

The day is finally here!!!  I can't tell you how long I have been bugging Stephanie to have one, so we can get rid of some of our stuff.  Unfortunately, I have the impression that some of the stuff we get rid of will be replaced rather easily. 

I am finding that I am not as emotional as I thought I would be about getting rid of this stuff.  You know, coming to the realization that we don't have babies anymore.  I am going to have a kid in elementary school!!!  Yikes.  

As I am writing I just had our first meltdown/ fight of the day.  Ayla and Elanor were fighting over their water cups.  Ayla picked them out, but Elanor thought one was hers, yet Ayla wanted that cup.  For the love of God!!!  It's a freaking cup of water!!  I can't win. 

I wish I could provide a picture of all the stuff in our yard we are selling.  Clothers, toys, stuffed animals, etc.  So far we have made about 20 bucks in an hour and a half.  Some serious gas money right there. 

Maybe we can take some of this money we make today and go out on a date.  Stephanie and I have not had a real date in a very long time. 

FYI it is also Ayla's birthday!!!  She turns 5 today.  I still remember my niece, Maddy, for years saying that she wanted a girl cousin.  When Ayla was born, she lit up.  Careful what you wish for Mads.  You now have 3. 

Parents give me your opinion on yard sales.  Is it a time of joy, or are ou saddened.  Let me know.  Brian
