my thrifty finds lately...

a sweet little e-mail started my day off in the right direction.
among other things, Lisa asked if I had
been thrifting lately...
and it reminded me of my last finds.
for some reason I have become attracted to
vintage sheets.

their beautiful floral patterns,
bright cheerful colours
and crazy low prices
keep me going back for more.
you can't buy stuff like this new.
the cotton is so soft...but heavy.
i now have a rather impressive stack.
(not like yours of course Beata! )

can't forget to include my new scottie.
he's painted pressed glass...
so there you go, all caught up.
thanks for the note friend,
i needed a kick start today.

summer's end...

The girls and I managed another few nights
at the lake.
The water had dropped a couple degrees,
but we had some lovely sunshine during our stay.

oliver is the happiest dog in the world
when he hangs out around the cottage..
the little king.

This is the best sunset viewing spot I know...

like always, i wait for it....
and then i holler
sunset!! grab your camera...let's go!!

so this is the part where i get in big trouble...

mom, are you serious?...look at us...

what? i think you both look beautiful!

i kept snapping and they kept laughing.
i love these sisters...
they are so good at it.

so we've gotten back into the routine of september...
emma is a city girl now.
i'm ok.
