Oh, and third, I'm your newest follower and will be a frequent visitor. Yay. :)
I love antique and thrift stores. I used to go to a bunch where I grew up in Cali and they had the coolest old fashion hats and stuff. They were so neat. Like the really pretty ones they would pin on their heads back in the day. So fun! Loves the pics.... as always!
I love to look around the housewares. I rarely buy anything, but it's just neat to see such a variety and from different times.
Fun day!

I literally live across the street from antique shops... maybe I need to go get my browse on.
Looks like you guys had a really great day!
I love shopping with no purpose. My husband not so much :)
Definitely my kind of shopping! I can walk into just about any store without buying anything. *pats self on the back* Glad to see someone with similar talents ;)
I love looking at antiques but I rarely actually buy anything, just fun to look! but you never know when you'll find something amazing!
