Week 21 + 22: May 20-June 2

I had so much going on this past week that I didn't have time to blog. So I decided I would combine both week 21 and 22 in one blog, since I really didn't do/need to do any shopping this past week. Week 21 my husband took our daughter and went camping. On the way back we stop in Bellingham at Costco. Since we were ALLOWED to bring back $200 in duty-free groceries each, we thought we'd take advantage. Also, while we were down the Canadian dollar was at par, making this trip extra great, as exchange was not even noticeable. Usually when we go down it is for 3 hours and technically you are not allowed any duty-free items (although we've never had to pay).
