I have had these red boots for a few weeks now, and everytime I would try to put an outfit together with them I would feel silly. I found this shirt digging around in this estate sale, and I knew instantly my boots would be able to see the light of day! I adore the print and the collar of this shirt, I think the turtle are so cute!

My sister, who is ten took my photos and was so proud of them!

Anton and I spent two hours on Monday at a truly magical estate sale. This building that had been closed since I was little (I've lived in this town my whole life) has an "Estate Sale" sign out front and I was so ecstatic to go in! The old couple had owned the building and made it a thrift store in the 50's, but they both passed away 17 years ago, closing the store. They finally opened the doors to it this past weekend. It seemed like everything in there had been frozen in time..Anton and I joked around that we felt like we were American Pickers (I love that show!) Everything was in piles and covered in dust..All the clothes were mostly in pristine conditions, I must of got 25 things (all for $1! each) I came home dusty, grumpy with arms sore from digging, but I had a blast!

Birthday Boy

Friday, October 8th was Anton's Birthday! Thursday night, my dad gave him his gift since he wouldn't of seen him on frinday due to working. Look at what happens next.





Anton's always wanted a bb gun, and once my dad heard that, he knew it would be the perfect gift to get him! Anton's mother wouldn't let him ever get one as a child, and now we all know why, haha. A few shots off of our front porch, and he shot out the window of my dad's van! We all had a good laugh and my dad wasn't mad. We just need to get it repaired over the weekend.

The next morning I surprised Anton with covering our room and his car in balloons. I got him a few gifts that he really loved and I baked him a cheesecake (his favorite recipe here!). After we took the girls to school, we came home and slept until noon..Once we were awake and ready, we went and ate breakfast at Denny's. I guess when it's your birthday, you get a free grand slam! Pretty radical. We sat and talked in Starbucks for a while and went to a few thrift stores, then he was off to work!





Now for outfits! My little brother wanted to be in the photos toooo.

A Day in Photos

I started off my morning by hanging out with Roman. We watched some cartoons, and played until the girls got out of school. After they came home and we tidied up the house, we all went to the park! I'm pretty proud of the bow I knitted! I spent the rest of my sunlight at Starbucks writing a paper for school. Once Anton got home, he took me out for some Chipotle! And now we're at home, cuddling our pup. Pretty swell day.

Thrifting and a lazy outfit.

Both Friday and Saturday I woke up early to get some deals. Friday, a local thrift store was having it's first of a month sale, making all clothes only $1.00. Anton and I went there around 8am, and waited in line for an hour (it was a big deal!) and we scored about 20 pieces of clothes. I got a pretty vintage coat, and Anton got a thick wool vintage navy coat among other great things. Saturday I woke up to my best pal calling me saying there was a huge rummage sale at the retirement complex on the other side of town. Most everything there was a quarter to a dollar, and the old folks running the sale were so cute.
Here are a few of the treasures!





Once I got home Saturday afternoon, I got dressed in some lazy clothes and lounged around all day knitting.

Black & White

The weather here in Yucaipa has been so wacky. The mornings will look full of clouds and wind, but within a few hours it will be 98 degrees and I'm left feeling deceived. I can't wait to start wearing sweaters and cardigans. Hopefully not too much longer, right? The past two days have been spent doing extreme thrifting, I have found so many amazing things, I'll post those tomorrow though.

These are from a cloudy yesterday morning.

On a different note, there has been a lot talk in my house of me starting up my own brick and mortar vintage store here in town. My best pal, Chrys, and I have been brainstorming, and it's coming along swell. I can only hope it will happen, but if not, it's still fun to plan!

Come and Get Your Love

Over the weekend, Anton and I celebrated our four month anniversary! Time has flown by, and I honestly have never been happier in all my life! I actually got him to come out and take some photos with me.
