4th of July is coming...

I've been racking my brain tonight about what the family and I might do for the 4th of July... In the end, I have come up with the MOST cost efficient day ever.

Holidays during the middle of the week can be a bummer... especially if you have school  or work on the  next day (like I do).  Therefore, my plans are simple... having a small BBQ with the trimmings, ice cream sundaes, family fun with the water sprinkler, and FREE fireworks show in town.

I wanted to show you guys my great Red, White, and Blue outfit and swimwear finds..

Sydni is sporting a Red, White and Blue Peace Sign Tank (Wal-Mart $3.47), Ruby Red Kid Gap TuTu Skirt (Garage Sale $1 With the original tag still on!), and a repeat of the Jean Vest ($7.50).

Total outfit- 11.97 (plus tax)

Dallas has on Red and Blue Stripe Shirt (Children's Place $4.49) and Khakis (Goodwill $2)!

Total oufit- 6.49 (plus tax)

I found these trunks at Once Upon A Child for $3.50 (with the original tag still on them).

The slippers are from Dollar General. They were $1.25!

<My model became frustrated and quit..lol>

Total- 4.75

Sydni is modeling a Tankini from Children's Place for a wopping $9.87 and a skirt $3.47.

I plan on having much fun with my munchkins on a wonderful, RARE off day.  I will make sure to have many pictures of our cost efficient 4th.

!!LOOK OUT!! After the 4th of July is when most water play things and bathing suits go on sale. The stores will be making room for school items and these summertime favorites will begin to go down in price. BUT DON'T be in a rush to buy!!! Monitor the items you like.  If it's at an unbelieveable price or the last one, THEN snatch it off of the shelves!

UP NEXT: Winter apparel.... all items purchased come to a total of $60 (will take a pic of the receipt!)

please PLEASE... Follow my blog!

Until next time, Luv ya... BYE!
