First of all, I had a great hair day.
I spent Friday night at my parent's house in Lancaster because my favorite almost second grader was spending the day at beach in Atlantic City with his dad and "56 of his dad's closest friends".
After a huge breakfast with my parents at a cute little diner, my mom and I headed out to Blue Ball, for Blue Ball Days (go ahead and giggle, I know it is funny). Basically, the entire town has a yardsale. We went last year and I made out pretty well, so now it's a tradition. The Amish and Mennonites take yardsaling very seriously. They will put anything up for sale. We saw old rusty tools, bras, ancient appliances. They also set up shop selling food, drinks and lemonade.
I didn't buy these (too expensive... and Ryan would have killed me if I wore them anywhere...)
But I did buy these:
Having taught kindergarten and first for the past four years, I have discovered I am lacking age appropriate materials for third graders. I could have brought home four times as many books. There were great books everywhere we went.
After that I went home and met up with Ryan for a bit. We had been coming and going all week it felt like, and it was so nice to just take some time together to reconnect. He was able to join us for my brother Joe's birthday dinner. We had a very fancy schmancy dinner at Creed's in King of Prussia. Then, of course, we had to do Zwahlen's for dessert.
Hope your Monday is super!
Linking up with Molly...

ramona quimby books are great, aren't they?
I love days like that. Just perfect however they don't happen nearly as often as they should for me.
I still laugh at Blue Ball...never gets old. Kind of like Scotrun up near the Poconos...every time I pass that sign my brain sees something else, haha!! Also, I just LOVE when you wake up to a perfect hair day! I'm having one today! :)
