This weekend was really bad. Monday is my mom's 50th bd so we've been celebrating all weekend. I bought her flowers, a new bicycle, lunch out yesterday, and I bought some new boots for myself and two frames when we were shopping on Friday. I bought them at Ross though so I only paid $40 total.

Also, since my dad is such a handy man and I have to get use of his services when he is at my home, I bought the new sink I've wanted and new faucets on sale. The sink was full price unfortunately. Fortunately, it is sooo much nicer than the sink we had that it is adding value to our home. He also put up a new outdoor light fixture that I bought at Lowe's last week on sale for $17. He had installed a light in my pantry on his last visit but the switch was faulty so he installed a new switch on this visit. I love to upgrade my home!

Since my dad is an electrician, he brings home spools for cable. My mom and I are going to paint them today to use them as tables. We bought some ivy stencils to decorate them once they are painted.
