Soup and Swap...SCORE!

I am so excited I can hardly contain myself! Look at all this stuff I got for FREE!!!!

Tonight we had a Soup and Swap for enrichment. We brought a SOUP to share (with the recipe) and anything we no longer needed or used to SWAP with someone that might be able to use it.

Here's my loot: Videos for the boys, two pairs of pants for Josh, a food chopper thingy, a spring kind of pan for cakes (don't you love how I don't know what the kitchen gadgets are called?), a plate rack holder that I plan on using for three framed pictures of the boys, AND my favorite item of the night...
..........drumroll please..........
A Pottery Barn Teen camo chair!
I cannot tell you how excited I am. It's almost like Christmas, almost.

Hey Natalie -

It's Kelly's sister Betsy. Thanks for replying on my blog. I'd LOVE for you to post those bridal shower ideas, invitation and everything. I think going with "firsts" is a great idea. Thanks. Sweet score by the way! :)

WOW!!!! What a great enrichment activity. Your ward must have a creative enrichment leader:) Everything looks fabulous. What videos did you get for the boys? Is the chopper thing a Zyliss? It's a must have.

Hey Natalie, my friend works for Era so I can only get buddy passes to places in the state! I tried to get her to work at Alaska but she moved to Kenai instead(Alaska doesn't fly there). We would still like to come visit though and Reno isn't to far from Anchorage. I'll be ready for another trip soon anyway.

P.S. I also love that enrichment idea! I'm going to suggest it to my ward.
