The sun is coming up over the lake and soon we will be on the road to a new days adventure.
Day two has thrift stores and whatever other whimsy we stumble on to.Beautiful weather was ordered for Amy's visit and was delivered!

Dept 56 Cookie Jar

Isn't she cute! Thanks to Amy for spotting her as she knows I love Dept 56!
I always go into Dept 56 at Disney downtown when we go there.
Department 56 Cookie Jar
In 1998 Dept. 56 debuted a short-lived series of Cookie Jars that were remakes of some of the more popular vintage jars. The Brush Humpty Dumpty with Beanie, Formal Pig and a Little Red Riding Hood were a few of the jars that were reproduced in this nostalgic collection of jars. As with many Dept. 56 jars, they were not easily found when new and are now even harder to find. Issue price was under $40, but today the jar can easily command more than double that figure.
This Little Red Riding Hood is one of the prettiest new ones produced and has been very popular with collectors.
The jar is 11" tall,weighs 2 lbs 6 oz and can sell for $75 to $125.

A Great place to shop!

FUN TIME TODAY!!! Inside and outside of Mora's Antiques and you have to go there if you are ever in Lake Elsinore, California!

Vicki is one of the sweetest ladies I have ever met. She has awesome treasures and eye candy.

First day in California at Mora's Antiques!

What an awesome day it was!

I picked Amy up at Ontario airport at 10:40 and we headed right for the Salvation army store in Corona.

I bought a Dept 56 red riding hood cookie jar for $5.75 and a Hall autumn leaf casserole for $4.00 with the lid!

I was happy!

Amy didn't find anything terrific so to lunch we went.

Guadalajara's is the downtown place to eat if you like beans and cheese and we both do! So after lunch we went to Vicki Mora's shop across the street and had great conversation and looked at all the wonderful goodies in her store.

Vicki's son Chad is an awesome artist and has great artwork on display and for sale.

Amy's on her way(Almost)

Amy is almost on her way!!!!!!

Sunshine is ordered for the weekend and lots of fun!

Bless you all.

Greetings and Happy New Year!
It's hard to believe that it has been so long since I have posted.
I have been up to my neck in little boys! My grandsons!
I don't think it is possible to love anything more then Grand kids!
My granddaughter Danielle was here also and she is a sweetheart.
Of course she was out numbered by all the boys.
So now you know what I have been up to the last six weeks.

My Wonderful news is Amy (foursisters in a cottage) will be arriving in 4 days!
We have some great fun planned.
We will post pictures so you all can share our fun!

This is going to be a wonderful year I just know it.
My resolutions are the same as last year except I am going to try harder to achieve them.
Weight is a big issue as I weigh more instead of less so I am really working on it already.
Also organizing my paper work!
My desk is so sad.
Well actually it is a beautiful old oak desk however you can't see the top so it is a work in progress.
Bless you all.
