Thrift Store Morning

I needed a little Amber time today so I brought Katie with me and we hit the three second hand stores in Vernal. I still can't believe there are three...and how does Amber time still include one child? I didn't bring much money because I was more interested in shopping rather than purchasing. I also told myself that I wasn't going to buy any books. On the way to the second one, Julie called and told me about fabric at the Thrift store...I said "We are headed there right now" So we met up with our favorite shopping buddies. I didn't buy the fabric (With cleaning I realized how much fabric and blankets we have) but I found something WONDERFULL!! Something I have been wanting for a VERY LONG TIME.

A Courting Candlestick

I know, I am thrilled. Three and a half bones and it was mine.

Then we convinced our buddies to head to DI with us and finish up our shopping. I walked in, and there they were, in the glass case for ONLY 3.00.........

A complete set of McGuffy Readers!!!
Oh, I am tickled pink. I have been wanting a set for.....well ever since I started homeschooling. They run about 100 plus I think.

It was a good day Thrifting. (yes it is a word in my world)

PS I did get two things that will be made over for personality in our new home. I will take some before and after pictures and keep you posted.
