Coming Soon!

As soon as I have a moment to catch up on my blog, I'll provide details and stunning photos from the 127 Yard Sale! Tim and I went Thursday and Friday, taking two days to go just over 50 miles! HA!

Late Breaking CA Pictures

My friend Chrys just sent me these! She and her hubby have been working on them! Okay, so I'm not quite as glamorous as Marilyn Monroe....at least this one was a female, right Tim?!!!

Tim's Birthday!

Tim had a birthday! Back in February when we went to the Melting Pot for Valentine's Day, Tim said he would like to go here for his birthday in July because he was enjoying it some much! We hadn't been in awhile and it was superb! So, July 16th came along and we had our evening planned. Garden Kitty was a bit confused because the presents were piled up on the front parlor table and she thought we were going to have a party that night. She didn't seem to understand that we were going to wait until Saturday!

The Melting Pot was fabulous and they had balloons and a card on the table for Tim! We thoroughly enjoyed our relaxing two hour meal there! Then on to Half Price books for perusing and dessert at Cold Stone Creamery although we were awfully full already!

Saturday, I brought home fresh grilled Angus burgers from the local Farmer's Market which has become a Saturday tradition this summer! Mom came over and had lunch with us and then Tim opened his presents and managed to blow out all of the candles on his cake again this year!

Recent Finds!

My helper showed up right when I got ready to take the picture! A few recent finds for my etsy shop from an estate sale and other hot spots!

Lawrenceburg Flea Market

For the first time in 25 years, the Lawrenceburg Flea Market had a special Saturday show in honor of their anniversary and the Fourth of July weekend! So, mom and I decided to go and combine it with a visit to my aunt and uncle's house the night before. Tim was back in his hometown for the week so it was just us girls!

We got up early Saturday morning and drove up from Hanover, IN which helped shorten the long drive. We arrived about 9am only to discover that the parking lot was quite empty! We soon found out that the show didn't start until NOON! The flyer that had hung on my refrigerator for months said 7-3 with early birds at 6. This is always the time frame for their Sunday shows. Well, apparently there was a little tiny asterisk next to the July 3rd date that said to see website for details. Um, if the times and dates are already on the flyer and I know how to get there, why would I go to the website?

And we weren't the only ones. Car after car after car arrived expecting the show to already be in full swing! Mom parked the car in the first spot in the first row and said she wasn't leaving! So began the 3 hour wait! We chatted with others who were waiting it out and read books and magazines. All in all, it went pretty fast and they ended up letting us in by 11:15. That was when we found out it was $10 per person instead of the normal $3 per person! This was to benefit Habitat for Humanity, which is a fine organization, but again we had no idea to expect such a high entry fee!

We were already there and had waited so long so we paid it and went on in. It was still a great show even though not everyone was set up entirely or even there! We just about closed it down and then headed back home via a quick stop at my aunt and uncle's again for baked ham sandwiches!

Lawrenceburg Flea Market- The Loot!

Most everything is for my etsy shop, however, the great old watercolor set is a definite keeper!
