September Birthday Celebration

In the McBroom family (Clay's mom's fam) they have a ton of people with September bdays. So we usually get together to celebrate. This year we went out to Aunt Gail's. She lives in Sunset, TX out in the country. We had a great time there playing outside and just relaxing, but the funniest thing to happen on this trip happened on the way out there. We were heading out there with the kids, Clay's sister Alyssa, and her husband Ryan. We saw several signs on the way out for yard sales, etc. Well what you may not know about my husband is that he loves to stop at these kind of places. "You just never know what you might find," is what he usually tells me. Well he was right this time. We stopped at a huge sale and everyone got out to look around except for me and Abby. When they got back in the car they were all laughing hysterically because the lady running the sale had tried to sell them a $50 donkey!! Now we don't know the goin' rate for donkeys, but that sounds like a really good deal. We've laughed alot over that one the last few weeks.

I guess the go-cart doesn't sound so bad compared to a donkey.

You need to pace yourself! Don't think that 4 blogs today means you're good for the rest of the month.

I think a Donkey would be a nice addition to your family! It can live in the pool shed :) I am laughing that the lady tried to sell it to Clay!!

That is too funny! I have to admit, I like yard sales too. I would not have thought that Clay would be into them.

It was fun going to dinner with you and Clay tonight. Small world...the blog world seems to make it even smaller.

I have enjoyed reading some about your cute family.

I love the donkey story...for 50$ that would of been an awesome thing for Santa to leave our boys under the Christamas tree...the gift that keeps on giving!

great family picture!
