i don't crochet...


a little while ago, while thrifting,
 i found a blanket for emma...
the one on the right.
it's soft and cozy and she loves it.
looks so sweet on her bed.


now mind you...
i felt so bad coming home empty handed for  elsie.

so can you imagine how tickled we were
last week to find one just for her?
it suits her..
meant to be.
i love raising thrifty girls.

welcome february....


exams are over for emma
and elsie had a snow day...
instead of just hanging out at home
they begged me to take them
to the secondhand store...
and look who i found there!
sweet little love birds...


$3
why were they still there?
who wouldn't want them?
i always feel like the luckiest girl
when i find a treasure like this...


also today, the girls were in the mood to put up hearts
i love february.
it's another month on the way to spring...
it's short.
and then it's march.
and march it almost spring.
...spring is a beautiful thing...


i think my mantle is kinda pretty too.
{thanks boo xox}


after the hearts and lovebirds
we'll bring out the chicks
and bunnies,
because it'll be spring...
i know, i said it again.
*just a note...
i am grateful for this blog
because it helps keep my mind busy
and got me through that long month of january.
oh the days are getting longer my friends!!
