If you’re not completely appalled at my behavior as a parent and are still reading this blog – thank you! 😉
This past Saturday, we were all so excited that it was supposed to be in the 60’s, so we had made plans to work in the barn and on the chicken house. We got dressed to go out and the stinkin’ wind about blew us over. We worked for a bit and then decided to do something a little more fun (and a little less windy).
There was an antique auction about 45 miles from here so we decided to hit the road! One of the ladies who had a booth in the Ogallala Antique Store decided to sell her collection so we thought we might find some fun things. We were right!
I found this really fun quilt for one of the guest rooms. This picture does not do it justice – you’ll have to check it out in person…
I found some more vintage Fiestaware to add to my little collection…
I fell in love with these hens on nests. They open up and you can put a little something inside…
I LOVE this big, old metal bowl. My fruit is going to look fab in it…
We scored Saywer some vintage dolls and doll furniture for her dollhouse…
I got some incredibly cute needlepoint pillowcases. This one is my fave…
We found some old pie pans and some little cast iron skillets, which Sawyer immediately called dibs on for her outdoor playhouse…
And we found this cute little Kitt and Kaboodle doll in great shape and her horse works like a charm. She is adorable! Someone really liked her, too…
The kids did so well at the auction and were so patient and obedient. Sawyer made friends with a little boy named Travis and they had fun pushing Wryder in the stroller all over the fairgrounds, which he enjoyed as well.
I’m not sure I can pick a favorite…what’s yours?
I’m still reading about your life & love it! Oh…and my favorite is the pillowcase! I think my grandmother use to have some…makes me want to check it out now 🙂
Metal bowl. Hands down. Sounds like you had SUCH a great time!
