Some Snow and a Couple Thrifted Treasures.....

 The kids had fun playing in the first snow of the year.....

 Cory's attempt at snow boarding on a sled.....as my kids
would say Fail.
 and here is my first amazing find today at the local thrift store.
 I love the hand painted base.
 and this huge wall hanging.
 I love this sweet picture and the inscription
on the back of it.


 Sweet cookie/candy pan
 This huge Westclox $3
I love it in Cory's room....


What a wonderful thrifting day 
someones trash is my treasure.


Hope your all having a great week so far!

    Fantastic clock & great finds, the writing on the picture is so sweet!! Love MiMi's teeth!!
    Oh yes, our children said "fail" to or if it's really bad . . . "epic fail". They are kind enough to stop short of judging my cooking. Love Posie

    Hello Heidi, sorry I haven`t been commenting much but I`m having a real problem with Internet Explorer when it comes to leaving comments on blogs with no pop-up window comment box!In which case, I need to come over to Google Chrome and leave comments from there. I don`t really know why I`m telling you this but it`s a slow day because I`m stuck at home with your dreaded lurgy that you had last week - hope you`re feeling better now. Looks like you`re all coping really well with the snow, which should be coming to a country near me anytime soon! Love your new collection of treasures, especially the inscription on the back of the pretty print which was obviously given and received with lots of love. Hope you have a good weekend, my lovely, keep warm and cosy.xxx
