Garage Sale

It's been a busy weekend! It's funny my enthusiasm from this weekend has gone in opposite directions. 

Thursday morning I was so excited about having our garage sale all weekend. It rained off and on most of the day. Thankfully my amazing husband, sister-in-law Katie, a friend and my mom all were there hanging out and we were able to get plastic over everything... just when the rain stopped. (Why does it always happen that way?!). So, off the plastic goes... and it starts raining again! I think that happened about 4 or so times... It frustrated me a little, but didn't damper my enthusiasm, since people were still flowing in and just hanging out in the garage until the rain passed! Surprisingly, Thursday was the day for people "garage sale-ing" 

Friday- Perfect day to have a garage sale! Beautiful weather! Not to hot, not too cold(as in rolled up jeans and a tee kinda day- My favorite!)  We had sooo much stuff to sell! We were makin' a lot of money, but there still seemed to be A LOT left to sell...? Starting to think about maybe extending the garage sale? Maybe. By the end of the day I was exhausted! Here's a pic of me and my beautiful sister-in-law bright and early on Friday!


Today- Was hot! Nice, but hot! Getting ancy(so I looked ancy up and it doesn't mean what I thought it meant? Oh well, I hope you get it!)  that we were not going to sell it all... The day was long. We were hot, tired and a little sun burned! We didn't sell everything we wanted, so we decided to try it one more day... Oh boy! I am so exhausted! Tomorrow will be the last day... I hope.

Question: 
Why do garage sale people come in "waves"???
If you have ever had a garage sale you know exactly what I am talking about!
One minute you have so many people that they are tripping over each other then the next, it's like an empty desert...
 ... A few minutes later you have a TON of people again...
Do they all talk to each other and let them know what minute and second they will be there? Is it when the traffic lights turn green? lol. -Ideas Katie and I came up with... Not the most brilliant, but we were hot and tired!
What do you think? :)

Well, maybe I will take some more pictures tomorrow to encourage me to get through the day! ;)
