Yard Sale, Easter and Strep Throat...

Well after a lot of prep work...we had our first yard sale on Saturday morning. Here is what my dining room and living room looked like on Friday...



My foyer and hallway were packed too! We got up Saturday at 4:30 am and put the stuff out...it was misting some so thank goodness Jeff had some plastic that we put over everything. But the weather didn't stop anyone...someone was at our house at 6:20 am!! And thank goodness we got a babysitter to watch Norah during the sale...it was a HUGE help as I am not sure what we would have done if we didn't have Ashley come over. We did really well and celebrated our success with a lobster tails! We got some at The Fresh Market that night and grilled them up...it was so good! The yard sale was hard work but glad we did it...and hope to not do another one for awhile!


So we woke up Sunday morning and it was Easter! Norah was excited about her Easter basket and we just took it easy...Jeff and I were still pretty tired from Saturday.


Then we headed over to Jeff's brother's house to have Easter lunch with his family. After a yummy lunch everyone was a good sport about hiding eggs for Norah to have an egg hunt...she had a lot of fun!




















So after the egg hunts...we had dessert which Norah said she wanted but then didn't eat it...I thought that was strange but she was tired. Well we got home and within an hour...she complained about a sore throat and had 101.4 temperature. Last night she was up like 6 times complaining of her sore throat and still had fever. So off to the doctor today and she has strep. So today was not as productive as I had hoped but at least we have Norah on some medicine now and she should start feeling better. I hate seeing her sick! Now I am off to do a couple things before heading to bed.
