i had a little bit of time before I had to pick the kids up from school. If I go the back way, I go right by this place.
The last time I was there I saw several books by one of my favorite authors. I just finished the last one so I decided to stock up on a few more.
i only came for books. That’s it. Nothing more.
But these glass jar cups were so cute and Hannah can drink her iced coffee out of them.
i refuse to pay almost $10 for a pop socket, but finding one for a dollar, absolutely. I love Mexican blankets so, yep, this came home with me.
i did get the books and maybe a sealed ice pop maker. I’ve actually been looking for one to make yogurt pops.
This year our town actually has TWO Spirit Halloween stores. Hannah’s boyfriend was over so all the kids asked if we could go check one of them out. Yes please!
it’s where our Tuesday Morning used to be. R.I.P. Tuesday Morning, I’ll miss you.
There were a lot of creepy things like this monkey.
And this mask I used to have that was one of my most favorite costumes ever.
But my very favorite masks I saw were these.
I want then all!
Now I’m going to finish watching an episode of the Midnight Club. Not super scary, but really good
I love that Donny is off on Thursdays because our day dates generally consist of finding estate sales. If you like to also go to estate sales, I highly recommend checking out estatesales.net to find some in your area. Anyway, I saw that there was a multi family estate sale starting at 10 am on Thursday and to make it even sweeter, I saw that they had my VERY favorite game from when I was a very little girl. My parents hated me playing it because there were so many pieces and it was played in the dark, So most of the time it sat in the top of the hall closet. I knew I wouldn’t be able to afford it because I had checked online so many times to try to find one and they were hella expensive. I really just wanted to SEE it. We got there at 9:45 and they had already been letting people in. The first thing I saw when we walked in was this older gentleman at the checkout with the game. Of course I asked him if i could just see and explained how nostalgic it was for me. He is a vintage game collector and actually invited us over to his house to play it. I was honestly just happy that he loved it too (he had been outbid on it on two occasions online) and wasn’t a reseller. I really should have gotten his address but it seemed a little weird even for me.
Only the best game ever! Well, from my 5 year old memory anyway.
There were some really cool things. A wool rug that was threadbare in one spot that I really liked. It was only $5, but Donny asked the practical question of “where are you going to put that old thing?”. He was right. I am slightly a rug hoarder and honestly didn’t have a place for it.
Donny had a great idea so we bought something in this picture.
Next we headed to one of our favorite places.
Where we put to use the baby corral we bought
We’ve now added 4 baby chicks to our flock. Well the grown hens and homicidal rooster don’t know about them yet because they will be in our living room for 9 weeks until they are old enough to join them.
Today I ran by my favorite thrift store and found some cute halloween bits.
The soaps are brand new. The cat is sugared vanilla and the ghost is pumpkin eggnog. They were $2 each. The pumpkin tea light holders were $1 each and although the cross isn’t Halloween, it has a heavy silver edge and it was also a dollar so i couldn’t pass it up.
I also got my haircut because Desiree had an opening and she’s the only one that touches mine and Hannah’s hair. Nothing major just the ends trimmed and they layers shaped up but it still feels good when you get a fresh cut.
