    Default I love handme downs!

    We just got 2 complete comforter sets (something I wanted to get before winter!), an almost new Eastpak bookbag (for my oldest) a smaller jansport backpack (for my youngest!), and a few purses that me and my oldest love! This was from our landlords, on occasion they have given us handme downs- what ever we don't want they just ask us to pass them on!

    The best part is that I was just talking to my husband about needing to get the girls backpacks for school and the comforter sets (the more blankets we have this winter- the more we will save on heating!)! It was such a God send!
