Sister Competition...

Sisters.  We love each other, we really do. But every year we create these events that cause tension, tears, and in some cases, trauma to our relationships.  The third annual sister competition is here, and this year we are switching things up!


This year's competition is sponsored by Goodwill.  An article of clothing was donated to us, and we're playing the game "Who Wore it Best?!"  Voting depends on the five people that read this blog, and the winner will be determined by the first of December.  Winner gets to host a sister brunch filled with food, games, and crafts.

May the odds be ever in your favor...

Sister #1


Sister #2

Sister #3

Sister #4

Happy Voting!

Trash Diggers...

Living in an apartment complex has it's perks.  Our mailbox is one of three hundred, all located in a building near the clubhouse.  A trash can is conveniently located where residents can throw their "junk mail" away before arriving back home.

Now, let me just say that digging through the trash is not a typical adventure the Gunnings participate in; however, this week we received a coupon in the mail to try out a new frozen yogurt place called "Cherry on Top".  This coupon is good for a 7 oz. cup of free frozen yogurt.  Our original purpose for looking in the trash was to find one more so that we could each have one, but the idea of free ice cream for the rest of the year got the best of us!  I spent a few minutes digging through our complex trash can, and we walked away with a few more...


Over night we realized that a few more wasn't enough!  The next day, after church, Nate and I went to other apartment complexes around us to check their mail room trash cans.  One word can describe this experience... JACKPOT!!!


After the best trash digging experience I have ever had, Nate and I enjoyed 7 oz. of delicious tasting frozen yogurt.  On the way out, the lady who served us said, "Thanks for coming.  Come back and see us again!"



And in my head I thought, "Oh, we'll be back... about 49 more times!"
