Two...

Well here they are, my two white pumkins I finally found. There wasn't a great selection, and they were only $1.99 ea. so these are the lucky guys to find a new home.
My thrift shop hopping was a dud...but I went to a gorgeous store, with the best name...
La Vintage Rue, which is located in Porterville, Ca.
I wish I could show you the whole store, its in an old building with old wood floors and brick walls...
love this look...
I bought the jar here on the desk, it was filled with old brown buttons...

and I purchased that little rusty bird cage...oh I wanted more, but you know...need more dough..lol...
she had alot of browns which made me more excited to paint my room, the problem I am having now is, have you seen how many browns are out there, I have nineteen right now, its a hard decision. Hope you are having a great Friday, see you tomorrow.

Chilly...

Well I had to turn the heater on for the first time, just to take the chill off...
love this fall sky...
our oranges are about ready to be picked...
the garden is still giving a beautiful show...

I will miss you...
well I am off...we were in a town about 20 minutes away this last weekend and drove by a fruit stand, well they had a big bin of white pumpkins...I think I will go get a few and definitely save the seeds and plant my own. I also want to check out a couple of thrift stores I spotted, wish me luck, have a fun day.
