My mom and I love to go to thrift stores, antique stores and Goodwill's. One afternoon while on vacation we decided to do a little shopping and headed into the nearest "city", which is about 45 minutes from my aunt and grandmother's house.
At Goodwill I ended up with 2 shirts, 2 skirts, 5 dresses and a pair of jeans! All brand new, with tags on them. Take a look! (:
Antiquing has always been an interest of my mama's, and I've picked up on it over the years. I remember as a little girl going through antique stores and picking up every piece of jade colored china I could find and looking for the name Fire King on the bottom. Mama's pattern was jade-ite, which is one of the more popular patterns that was found in restaurants. On our trip last week I started 2 collections of Fire King glassware. I first ran across a white and gold pattern that was very inexpensive, so I decided to purchase it. After that I fell in love with a pattern called Peach Lustre - Laurel. I am in love! If any of you thrift store and antique shoppers run across either of these, let me know! (:

While searching for my new china collection, I ran across this beautiful painting. I LOVE paintings, but unfortunately, my pocketbook does not love their prices. This one was a great price! Fifteen bucks!
This is all for now... (: I hope to post lots of pics from our vacation soon. Stay tuned!!
