II Chronicles 7:14

If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

4 my dear Rene

My dear buddy Rene wants to know why neither I nor Ashley have blogged about our fabulous bargain-shopping experience from Saturday yet. Well...it's like this Rene: I got home and tried on all our "bargains" and not one thing fit comfortably. Remind me again why I bought all size 2's and 4's? Everything is just a tad-bit too tight or a lot-bit too tight. BLECK!
Seriously, I thought there would be at least one thing that I could wear NOW, but I think the only thing that fits in that category is a pink, stretchy-fabric t-shirt and even that is long-sleeved and a little too warm for the weather right now.
Anyway...the experience itself was SO FUN and I will definitely do it again. It's this cool consignment store that has a sale like twice a year where you can have everything you can fit into a bag (that they give you) for only $10. I believe I ended up with 19 items not including about 10 brand-new Lancome products (blush, eyeshadow, lipstick).
Here is a pick of us holding our bags, and then one of us at TGIFriday's having lunch. Yes, that's me there licking the bowl from our brownie obsession. Obsession is right...that thing will have me obsessing for months--wanting another one! YUM!

I know the feeling girly. We went shopping and I tried tons of clothes on, but nothing fit right...then I come home and a girlfriend of mine gave me 3 pairs of jeans that someone had given her but they were to short for her...well, they all still had the tags on them, and were all size 2 and 3, and wouldn't you know it; they fit PERFECTLY!!!
My husband just sat there in shock, saying "how can we spend all day at the stores, you trying stuff on and nothing fits...but then someone 'gives' you clothes and they all fit perfectly?" LOL! It must have just been a God thing. :)

thanks for finally posting! Hey at least you can GET your leg in those 2s and 4s. They don't even go past my thigh! However, I do have to say one reason I love shpping at the tommy hilfiger outlet is that I fit in a 6 NOW, and when I loose weight I CAN get in a 4---love that even if its only one company, it still feels good :)

Well ... I'm WAAAY behind on your blog. Tried to check last week and then was side-tracked. I guess I'll never get caught up, but I enjoyed the pictures. And I love this sale thing you went to. AWESOME!

P.S. I would lick the brownie bowl too :)

P.S.S I shouldn't lick brownie bowls -- I'm not s size 2-4 like you!! WAY TO GO!!
