Did I Pass the Test......

Today there was a fabric sale at one of the local churches.  I missed the sale last year and this year I was determined to get there at 9am when it started!  I found several pieces that I liked and the prices were very reasonable and I know the guild does great things with the money!  Here is the test......I knew about how much I had spent and was chatting with one of the ladies that I knew and paid, when I got in the car I realized that they had not charged me for one of the pieces, the most expensive and largest piece almost 7 yards!  Well I could have just driven off, but......I ran in and told them they forgot to charge me for that one piece and paid them!  Did I pass the test??  Here are the goodies that I found:
The dark fabric was the one that was almost free, LOL, these are my favorites!

These were packaged as a bundle, I liked  the
three on the top the most and the rest will be added to my scraps for a project someday.

I was able to get the shutters painted and the trim around the garage doors done, a trip to the dump transfer station and got rid of some of the old stuff that has been under the deck waiting for me to take it away! 
Here is what else we have been working on...... our middle son and one of his friends came today and sawed the big pile and now I will be able to manage them for the splitter.
Here is the pile that w had already split and stacked to come in the house sometime next month.

Last week my hubby was out digging and cleaning the roots where we have been cutting trees and he found this bottle, don't know how he didn't break it with the bucket of the tractor! 
Our road used to be a small dirt back road that I think many drove and threw their trash, it says wine on the bottom and has a patten # on the it, I don't think it's that old but probably older than me, it has a screw top that is rusted. 

Hope you have a great weekend.
