My Awesome Finds

Hi.  Just wanted to pop on quick and share my awesome finds from today. I had to go to Lowe's for some barn paint and just took a minute to run into the GW.  I have never found my Pfaltzgraff dishes there, but today was different. I went in looking for some wood pieces to redo and was just walking out and there they were.   The soup tureen doesn't have a lid, but that's okay.  All together for  the 16 pieces was $16!!  I was so excited. 

Then, this afternoon, our girls had a youth group fundraiser at an auction.  If you liked lamps, you were in luck.  Hundreds of them.  They aren't for me, but they had a few jugs and crocks.  They put them all together for choice so I thought I would be in trouble.  Well, the bidding was over almost as fast as it started and guess what??  I won this beauty.  Now, it does have chips and some cracks, but all of those marks just tell a story and add character, right?  Besides, I don't think I could afford the perfect ones anyway.

The best news......only $13!!!   My pastor who was helping with the fundraiser told me I should feel guilty.  Do I??  Heck no!!  

Today is also our 20th anniversary and look what DH sent to me.  Twenty beautiful roses.  Isn't he sweet?  Wonder how long I will get a rose for each year? I love the orange and yellow ones...they look like fire. 

I have to leave you with this picture of some of our new spring kittens. They kept getting into my flower pots to sleep and ruining the flowers.  So, I took a bowl, filled it with dirt, and put it where the pots were.  I came out this morning to find them all (5) with momma squeezed into it.  Not too comfortable looking, but cute!!

Gotta run for now.  Remember, only 5 more followers and I will be having a giveaway.  I'm still thinking on what it might be.  I'll let you know soon. Take care and thanks for stopping by.
