A Good Haul

So after my not so great morning yesterday (see yesterday's post) I decided after I dropped one set of twins off that I didn't want to go home. So I headed out to Goodwill to see if I could find any treasures.  I have recently found inspiration for a new nightstand in my bedroom and I'm looking high and low to find a piece that I can rework to fit my vision so I dragged the 4 remaining girls across town to the only thrift store that I haven't checked in the past week.  No luck on the night stand front but I did find a few things.



I also found a cute little owl that didn't make it into this picture.  So after years of picking up treasures and then not doing anything with them I have a rule that if I bring it into the house it has to have a home.  So I got to work when I got home the little pail got a chalkboard label and is now the home of lost board game and puzzle pieces.

Please excuse my bad penmanship I forgot to write on it before I put the label on.

The coffee pot fits in my beloved Starbucks Barista coffee maker so when we have lots of people over I can keep the coffee coming.  Then I went to put the pink bag away (I'm going to use it for a knitting bag) and I noticed that there was something in one of the pockets...


There was $21 dollars in the pocket! I called the store and asked what I should do and the lady was really nice and told me that because I found it after I bought the bag it was mine! So I took the kids out for a treat after dinner, and get this the tab was $20.66 it was totally meant to be! (B was working late across the sound so he couldn't come but he's not a big fan of fro-yo anyways.) 

I have no idea why Sarah is making this face, I swear she was having fun.


All in all I think it was a good haul.
