7 on the 7th-my collections

Ok I am back in the blogging world hopefully. A couple months ago my friend Amanda ( I can not figure out how to input the address of her page, but it's in my following/stalker section) started the 7 on the 7th. This month is things we collect, purposefully and not purposefully. So, here goes...(some of these were a stretch, i dont know 7 things off the top of my head that i collect)

1. Willow Tree figurines. I have got them as gifts from others and my parents are continuing my collection to the nativity scene. I know people dont like them because they dont have faces (jamie) but I think they are beautiful.

2. Where the Sidewalk ends books. I have all of them and the added extra one.

3. Hangers...I'm not sure what happened, but we could fill every closet in our house with hangers. Te plastic ones that come in many colors, yea we have hundreds...maybe thousands. If you need hangers just ask I'll send you some. A ridiculous collection, and not at all purposeful, i'm not sure how it happend really, but it carried over into baby hangers too because we have too many of those too.

4. cute little boy clothes...I can't help myself. I love the little man look. If we have A girl we will be in big trouble I think.

5. tshirts from races. Widmar and I have done many races between us. We both have a hard time throwing them away. We managed between the two of us to pick only one each of most of them.

6. childrens books. I started this before we had kids and have added to it significantly in the past years. Many people help with this collect, my mom being the main person. Friends of the family have also contributed, as the boys get a lot of books for Christmas and birthdays.

7. and finally...at no surprise to most of you bags and totes. It's a little ridiculous actually, but it comes with the territory. Thirty-One has such cute stuff I just can't help myself. And i always get suckered into the ones at the grocery stores. :)
