South County Antique Mall

My friend Lori came to pick me up to take me to the South County antique mall and this is where
I found this lovely hat filled with millinery flowers...... found some 1920 pics which I love to collect. If the
weather cooperates I want to attend my local flea, but who knows it's been storming all day today......

Labor day weekend fun in the sun

Some pics I took this weekend of the fun we had out in our yard.
When it's hot I enjoy going outside and getting wet with the hose.
Sorry if this ain't your idea of fun, but We enjoy just splashing water
all around us. Also, the furry cutie in the middle is my new addition to
the family PAPASH! Isn't he cute..... His cuteness is saving him because
this little booger has kept me up part of the night this past week. He wakes
up around 3 and 4 and also 5 a.m. to go do his business outside. I then have to
get up at 6:00 to go to work. I got a puppy becuase I was wanting a baby and
since that is not going to happen my mom gave me a puppy.... Don't know how long
he is going to stay. I am trying to be patient and not give up and throw in the towel
especially when you take him out and then he comes in and does his business inside.

Oh well, he is adorable though.......

some good ole shopping treasures

vintage flea treasures

continues from below.......................................................

Where have I been? Don't know if you we were wondering. I have just been hanging out and being Mommie and playing house. Of course I have been shopping, but have not created in a while. My boys have started school and soccer. Takes up a lot of my time. Working of course. I need to do that to be able to shop. I have crashed a couple of estate sales, antique stores and today my local flea.

Next month I want to attend the Belleville, IL flea if GOD permits. Okay I will leave you with a few pics of some of my goodies. I have more and I promise to post them soon.

soccer fun

I have been very busy attending my son's sport tournaments.

last week we attended the show me games in Columbia, MO and I am proud to say
that we won first place in the U9 level.

I am so proud and it was a blast.

favorite find

I had not shared this with you. I found this beautiful antique photo album a few months
ago at one of my favorite antique malls. I past it up a couple a times. Finally, one day when I was
ready to buy it it was gone. Well, I thought it was not meant to be. I went back again a f ew weeks
ago and OMG it was there again. This time I could not pass it up so here are a few pics that I took of it. It has more tin type pictures other then the ones I am showing. It is truly a beautiful find.

I am so amazed at it's beauty and can't help thinking about who these people are and what their
lives were like. I will never know. All they have to know is that I will cherish this forever......

Collections

I am sharing with you a few of my finds here that hopefully soon
I will have displayed on the wall of my kitchen. So far I have at least
ten plates that I would like to hang on the wall and have them displayed.

Highway 70 here we come!

Yes, we headed off early Sat to breakfast and then off to hit
highway 70 for an antiquing adventure. My friend Jennifer and
her family surprised me Friday by coming to visit this past weekend.

So her hubby and son hung out with my three boys.

Us girls went out and about on highway 70 stopping at every
little antique store on the way to Fulton, MO. I had a good time and
I hope my SCOUTS (as my husband calls my friends, Jen, Amanda and Michel)
had a good time as well.....

Michel you look good in that red ole hat... Look at that other feathery flowery
purply hat! WOW!

I will post more later of some of the finds..

Love, Just ME

baubles and finds, oh my!

vintage pictures and more stuff

Happy 4th to you

Happy 4th to you....

Like Linda Harre my main focus today is my
little family of four today...

Family and fun

Also in mind will be all the soldiers that have fought for
our freedom and the great sacrifices they have made and
the sacrifices of their families.

GOD BLESS!

more goodies to share

more pictures I found this weekend. I love the 1920s
so I really cannot pass up any pic of that era.

I always wonder if I was reincarnated from that time.

weekend find

on my way back from the lake this weekend, I spotted
a little antique shop past osage beach, mo. my hubby was nice
enough to stop so that I can browse.... I only bought a few pics because
to be honest she was way more expensive then some of the goods I can find
at my local antique store on 94 or the flea market. it was nice to stop though and
see some of the goods she had... overly priced and all.

I am planning a day trip this Saturday down highway 70 and I am going to hit all the
little antique stores I passed the other day...... love the country and maybe I will find a
few treasures I can show you next week.
