First Things First

When I ask for help I get help.

I LOVE my blog readers.

I printed out all of the comments, and I’m going to answer them all this week.

But, first things first.

I am not going to stop blogging.

It’s kind of therapy for me, along with scrapbooking.

I love blogging and I  don’t want to stop.

But I felt like I was running out of things to talk about,

and I didn’t want to be one of those boring, self-indulgent bloggers.

But thanks to you guys, I am rejuvenated.

I can’t tell you thank you enough.

So be on the lookout this week,

there might be a special something coming your way!

Lookie what we have on our front porch,

in a hanging basket:

Harper and I have been flipping out.

We’ve been watching the eggs, and when I took down the basket

and we saw these, we both were jumping up and down.

Dorky, I know.

But I don’t think I’ve ever seen birds this small.

Look at this one from my parent’s house:

I’ll be honest, he kind of freaks  me out.

I feel like he’s going to peck my eye out or something.

But seriously…baby birds are EVERYWHERE right now.

I love it!!

Another thing that perked me right up is that yesterday was a fantastic mail day.

I got these cute Baby Legs:

Ridiculously cheap from Baby Steals, might I add.

That site is AMAZING.

Sign up for their daily emails, but I’ll warn you, 

I’ll beat you to the deals, I’ve got fast typing fingers

and as soon as i find these sweet deals in my inbox, i snatch them right up.

hehehe

And I got these beautiful goodies from my friend Doris:

And I have to be honest, I don’t get excited over too many inanimate objects, heee

but this pile of beautiful vintage inspired goodness has my heart pounding:

Especially that amazing crepe paper ribbon. 

I owe you BIG time, my friend.

Harper and I also made a run to the flea market yesterday.

A few of you have asked about this flea market.

1. How much do you spend each week? It seems expensive.- I usually spend about 20 dollars. Yesterday I spent 15. Not bad when you think about the fact that each thing is one of a kind with a story, and that I could buy one “new” thing for my home for the amount I spend each month on “loved” things for my home.

Some people don’t get it, they think this stuff is junk

or that it’s ugly…but that’s fine with me..more for me!

2. How do you find these things? My flea market has junk and only junk!!:

Patience, my friends. Mine has junk too. If you don’t bother to take your time and dig, you’d think it wasn’t worth your while. You’ve got to get your hands dirty!

Here are some photos from yesterday:

it is in an old drive in theater…ssoooo cool.

and what i spent my 15 dollars on:

I hope you all have a blessed, beautiful Sunday.
