~Craft Show, Find and Harvest Swap~

Well, I figured out why it wouldn't upload my pictures to put on here...there is a little box right by the word upload and that has to have a check mark in it before it will upload, something about agreeing to their terms:) So happy I found that because I tried twice before I noticed that!


Saturday we went to the Covered Bridge Festival which from the start didn't go so well, when I got to my daughter's Samantha was giving her a hard time about what she was wearing then we finally get to the car and I realized that I forgot my camera, I hate when I do that,grrrrrrr.
We finally get there and the place is packed (they hold it for 3 days) you couldn't get into the tents, so crowded and Michele had to stand outside with the girls and couldn't look, not fun for her. The girls were whiny and wanted to do all the things they had there for kids, train, petting zoo and one was set up for games like at a carnival...what was he doing there at a craft show? I feel it just wasn't the place for him to be because it made the kids want to hang out there...another grrrrrrrrr! Not a good day folks! I did manage to find two things...I call this Lady Liberty, she is made out of really heavy tin I saw her then went back to get her because there was only one of her! I don't know where she will be put but I'm sure I'll find a place, I put this battery candle in there but I think it's to big so I'll go with a smaller, wax one.

My second thing was this blueish, gray buttocks basket it was only $15.00 and I decided to get it because I knew Michele just wanted to go home:)

Here is a close up of it!

Last Friday I went to get my hair done and stopped by the consignment shop across the street she always has just a few prim things and I've had my eye on this for a few months so I paid $8.00 for it and I'll prim it up...more than likely black!

Now on to the Harvest Swap that I did with Allison from the Sew Many Girls blog! She certainly spoiled me with two bowl fillers a pumpkin and sunflower which believe it or not I don't have.LOL Three candles two with the scent of Apple Pie one of my favorite scents for fall! The cutest Annie with a fall dress and bag on her and also some fall fabric! Love it Allison!

She also sent me this gorgeous rag, star, runner in fall fabric...I have it on my coffee table , again thank you Allison I love everything:)

Here is a close up of the fabric! Everything goes so well with it I think!

Here also is a close up of my diningroom table display with the bowl fillers and the tin can for fall that I have one of the Apple Pie candles in and burning as I type this:)

I know I haven't blogged for about four days but ladies I've been so tired what with working and still watching the girls, I'm off today but still took and picked up Samantha at pre-school. I'm also catching up with laundry and still have to vacuum, oh well it will get done, watching the girls is only for this school year than Samantha will be in all day kindergarden:)

Have a great fall day!!!

~My Giveaway From Judy~

Hi everyone...how are you? I've been busy watching the "girls" I usually watch them on Tuesdays and Thursday but the babysitter got sick Monday and that's what's kept me from posting. This past weekend we did go boating in the 90 degree humid weather, we asked friends that we went to school with so we had a good time even though I was sweating buckets...hate that kind of weather! It's been gloomy here today the sun's only been out a little bit, yesterday we did swim in the pool and got some sun.
I recieved my giveaway from Judy at The Spice Cupboard and I was just so thrilled! I needed some prim fall and halloween items and I know I just can't wait to put them out...I think I'll do that after Labor Day this year because I sure can't wait:) When I opened it up this tag is what I found on top then I turned it over....... and saw that is is also a Halloween tag...so cute!

She had tied the three items in the cutest prim Halloween tinsil, I sure saved that! Look at the owl on the moon isn't he sweet?

I then unwrapped this cutey and I really can't wait to put this some place special:)

This is just adorable I love pumpkins and both pillows are such a nice size too:).

Here is a better pic of the owl and the moon...love it!

Thank you so much Judy I love it all!!!

Beth from Raggedy Angel also made me this prim towel but had accidently put my first marriage name on it and quickly made me another, I love it Beth you are such a sweetheart and I sure hope your cold has finally gone away.

I had another picture of it hanging but deleted it because it was to blurry:(

We attended Stush's brother Johnny's daughter's wedding and had such a great time...a real Polish wedding! They live in Washington D.C.

and I loved this part where she and her dad sang the oldie "What Your Name" while they danced! She would go with her dad to the Do Wop concerts in Pittsburgh:)

I know I don't post to many pictures of Buster and I don't know why because he gives us both so much joy. Here he is in the pool which he loves, he had so much fun with our company from Vermont when they were here.

Well the sun is back out believe it or not so I better finish getting things out for the yard sale this coming weekend, so much work but worth it in the end. I found a lady on ebay who makes prim curtains and I'd like to buy some with my money that I earn:)

Have a great evening everyone and please excuse mistakes that I've made on here but I'm in a hurry as usual:)
