We made some strange purchases this weekend. We are probably the cheapest people you will ever meet and rarely make impulsive purchases, but this weekend we went a little cra cra (that’s crazy for all you people that don’t speak a little youth-n-ese).
It all started with a trip to Target. We had to get a gift for a birthday party, so I was having fun going to down every toy isle while Nate was planning his first impulsive purchase. He comes back to the cart and doesn’t even ask my opinion…. he just chunks it in:
That’s right. Star Wars R2-D2 Trouble.
It was a cute $10 to spend to see the smile on Nate’s face. And it was pretty fun playing it that night. We did just finish watching all six Star Wars movies again, so I guess something else Star Wars was destined to live in our house on this “May the Fourth be With You” day.
And, yes…. If liking Star Wars makes you a nerd, we are total nerds. Unashamedly so! ha
The next day, we decided to go look at some trucks. We have been thinking about buying Nate a new truck for some time now. His single cab pick-up will be a problem when we have kids, and his poor truck is just slowly falling apart. So, Saturday on Cinco de Mayo, we bought this:
I am so glad that Nate has a reliable truck with four doors just like he wanted. It is worth every penny and we are excited to see just how long we can make this ol 2003 ford last.
The best part of the new truck is that by selling his old one, we will pay off our jeep! I am beyond excited about that! It will be another one of my “27 Things” to check off!
