Happy Fourth of July!

Vintage Fourth of July Postcard, originally uploaded by riptheskull.

Just a quick note to say have a great holiday!

Apparently I'm taking an impromptu blogging break, but all is well and I'll be back soon.

Happy Belated Mother's Day!

I hope everyone had a great Mother's Day, whether celebrating with your own kids or celebrating the gift that is the mother in your life!

A few years ago, we started a new tradition where the small group of women on my little side of the family who are mothers get together for lunch and whatever.

This year, it was lunch and thrift store shopping, LOL. And, believe it or not, it was not my idea, it was my mom's. So, a great day was had by all and a few new vintage finds were found!

Top that all off with some ice cream and, there you go, you can't really ask for anything better.

Sorry for the short post with no visuals, but this girl is getting tired.

Oh, before I go, my middle daughter is 36 weeks pregnant and at today's appt. she was at 1 cm. dilated. Exciting times, waiting for my second grandchild to be born! So, we shall see how much longer she goes...you can stay at 1-3 cm for days, you just never know.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

I wore this vintage four-leaf clover pin today as my touch of green to celebrate. I love it! I found this at a recent church rummage sale along with several other vintage pins/brooches that I plan on listing at The Vintage Butterfly Boutique soon.

This month is just flying by isn't it? I can't believe that Easter is this Sunday.
We'll be celebrating with the family the day before and combining a few things together; Easter, my oldest daughter moving into her own place and my youngest daughter's 17 birthday. It should be fun as my oldest does not have much furniture as of yet and we'll all be over at her place, lol.
