Mr. Lug's Birthday
Saturday was Mr. Lug's birthday:
We celebrated with a garage sale and Darth Vadar masks (you can truly find anything at Target).
The garage sale was awesome and spanned two mornings. We made some cold hard cash that will assist us with our move and buying more crap.
The true celebration was dinner at a Mexican Restaurant and drinking at the local watering holes. The Darth Vadars got a little out of hand.
All in all it was a very eventful weekend. JT (who also took part in the garage sale) promises to do a whole post on the ordeal so you can go bug him for the rest of the pictures. In the meantime you can contemplate why this featured item at the garage sale didn't sell:
That is a wine shoe from my homeland - the Philippines that is to be used as so:
The fact that it didn't sell may be a sign that it should be a gift for a little lady who likes wine and gave me this classy clock that will be the first thing to go up at the new house.

Happy Birthday Mr. Lug!
If I'd been at your garage sale, I would have been all over the wine shoe. That thing rules!

Anne Marie would totally love that "shoe" It covers all the required items for home decor.
1) wood
2) Shoes
3) The ability to house booze.
She does hold such an eclectic taste doesn't she?!????!??????

I NEED that thing.

Happiest of happy birthdays mr. lug... I also am of the camp "woah, why are you selling that" I love it. I put my decorative wine holder up first thing when I moved in...which is funny because I hate wine and have no counter space...it looks cool though

I love the "Featured Item" sign. I don't think I've ever seen one of those at a garage sale. That's great!

haha.... I love Betsy's comment. ;)
We closed on our house yesterday... I am so exhausted but can't sleep (just in case you are wondering why I am sending this at 6am- gah.)
Maybe we will try to do a yard sale- great idea! (at Casey's mom's house...)
Happy belated, Mr. Lug!
