If you have time today, you need to get to the Dillard's Outlet at the old Biltmore Mall...everything is an additional 50% off the lowest price on the tag. Nathan and I went there yesterday and together we got a pair of shoes, a dress and 5 men's casual button up shirts for $84! Some of the men's shirts where already marked down to $4.99 and then 50% off of that price! When Nathan picked up a shirt and looked at the price tag and said "$28? That's crazy!" I knew then I have raised him right! :) That shirt was originally $85, marked down to $28 and then 50%, making it $14...which is an awesome deal!
If you have any clothes, books, etc in good condition, we have a new thrift store open in Maggie Valley and is operated by the VFW and they take donations. I am not sure of the hours, but I have stuff to take there and will find out. On Saturdays they have a bag sale...$5 a bag and 5 books for $1.
Whew! We all survived last week! :) I can't believe how much we accomplished! The Mother's Day gifts are done, we learned about England and had a fabulous tea party! I don't know about the kids, but I was worn out by Friday night! :) The kids had a great time with the party and I can't express how proud I am of all of them! They where so well behaved and sat at the table for much longer than I anticipated!
This week we are going to be learning about Monet and creating our own Monet painting! We are also going to do some yoga, our estimation jar and read some new books I found! One of the books is called "A Sick Day for Amos McGee". I found this book at Kohls, along with an elephant to go with it! Last weekend the elephant rode all over Asheville with me and now it's time for him to come to school to see the kids! There where several other books that where really cute, along with a few more animals...turtle, bear and a dolphin. The books and animals are $5 each and 100% of the net profit donated goes to support kids health and education initiatives in communities nationwide.
