Happy New Year!
I celebrated the new year by doing things that would break most people’s resolutions – I went shopping, spent money, drank a milkshake and I didn’t work out.
This is why I don’t make resolutions. 
Our local Goodwill had a 50% off today and you all know what a sucker I am for that place! I met my mom there right when they opened and this is what I came home with:
All this for $36! Just in case you want the break down, here it is:
Nicole Miller gold tie – $1.00
2 Pairs of Nike Tempo Shorts – $2.00
Navy Blue Talbots skirt – $2.00
FSU tshirt (for the Mini Athlete) – $0.50
Dress for Little Miss – $0.50
Carters pink pants for Little Miss – $0.50
Carters pink outfit – $0.50
Champion Workout Tank – $1.50
Blue Alfani Shirt – $1.50
Boppy – $2.50
Perry Ellis men’s shirt – $2.50
Banana Republic silk dress – $7.50
Tissue holder covered in bling – $2.50 (actually for my mom’s house)
And a pair of flats that I forgot to include in the photo – $3.50
Then my mom called and informed me that Dillards had everything in their store 50% off – and sometimes an extra 50% off that! Nate has been needing some new dress clothes and we were able to find some nice Perry Ellis pants for $20 and also got him a pair of Lucky jeans for just $22. Oh and I couldn’t resist buying these for Little Miss Athlete – her first pair of running shorts!
Just $3.74. I love a good deal. These are actually size 18m so we have a while before she can wear them but I can just imagine how cute they will look! She seems pretty happy about them too.
Back to New Year resolutions…I actually did make (and keep) a resolution one year. While in high school, I decided I wasn’t going to eat chocolate for a year – and I didn’t. Even when I went to Europe for the first time. No Swiss chocolate.
Dumbest. Resolution. Ever.
Have you ever made and kept a resolution? Lasted more than one day?

Well, I did exercise today, but my eating is still in quasi-holiday mode. Might as well finish off the last Christmas cookies, right?
Little Miss Athlete looks a lot like the Mini Athlete in that last picture! So cute!
You have an amazing Goodwill! I would never find that much good stuff at ours.
Whoa I need to go by my Goodwill some time! Those itty bitty Nike shorts are amazing! I can’t wait to see pictures of her wearing them.
One year, I made a resolution to stop drinking pop/soda. I lasted the whole year (and then some)! It has been 10 years (wow!)!!
Love that you got so much stuff – I’m all about good deals! ..Not too big on resolutions though (I feel like if I put something totally off limits I end up breaking and going wayyyyy overboard indulging when I do!).. Happy New Years!
I love goodwill!! Most of my little Baby Girl’s clothes come from there – such great deals and it’s kind of like digging for gold! Your little Miss Athlete is so precious
Love this Picture! Happy New Year!!
Wow, you tore it up at the thrift store! This is making me want to go shopping. Of course, I need to clean out my closet and donate first!
I’m seriously impressed with the good deals you find! And those running shorts are amazing
Love Little Miss- she is so precious.
Wooow! She looks like mini’s twin in that last picture! So cute!
She is so cute! Love your goods from Goodwill! I never find anything at ours – hoping that I might find better items in our new city.
