easter sale at country roads this weekend...

great news!
country roads is having an easter sale...it's the "I'd Rather Shop Than Hunt Easter Eggs Sale"!  it's only six hours...from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm, so you may want to shop early so you don't miss out on the good stuff.
christilynn and i are having 15% off in our booth, but most of the dealers are having sales as well...
it's going to be good!
sue is a huge giver to charities that need our help...if you bring a diaper bag filled with "stuff" for babies that will be given to women that are staying in shelters you will be given an entry to possibly win a $100 shopping spree at country roads...it has to be a "diaper bag filled with baby stuff", not a plastic bag, etc.  country roads will give you one entry blank for each diaper bag you donate.  we are all so blessed to live in orange county....what an awesome way to give back!  especially on easter!
so, please help if you can?
have a blessed easter from the furniture queen...

fun weekend with the family...









with all of us going in different directions, it was a nice to have a weekend to spend with the family...the four of us hanging and spending time together for steve's birthday...that's one great thing i can say for our kids...they never hesitate spending time with the family on one of our birthdays!!!
we went bowling and to dinner for steve's birthday on saturday and on sunday we spent the day together...starting off with bagels in the morning, the santa monica flea market {which was a bust}, the torrance antique street faire where i picked up some treasures and then off to see mom in the hospital {yes, she's back in the hospital with a respitory infection} then home for dinner and some surprise guests for steve's birthday...i was not surprised, steve was...
some quality time with the kids, some yummy food and special friends...
a great weekend!

vets flea market yesterday...









yeah, the weather held up for us yesterday!
it got a little scary for a bit, with some raindrops which made me scurry around and pack up some smalls and move the fabric covered chairs under the tarp, but the sun peeked through after that...
and, there were a ton of people there yesterday...i shared a booth with karen, a new friend from long beach...she has great bottles, with shells...and, it was fun to get to know her.
we did pretty good...the crowd was a bit different than the normal crowd...
my sweet mom made the trek out...i had to wheel her around in her new little pink walker that has a seat when she got tired, but it was great to have her and see her out/about enjoying the people and fresh air...
christilynn came by and took my mom up/down an aisle too!
here's some pictures i would like to share...
the only sad thing, was that i got one thing stolen, a little vintage pedistal...but i guess they needed it more than i did...i truly don't understand why people take things that don't belong to them...i don't think i will ever understand that...
remember, if you ever see anything on my blog you just have to have...contact me and we can make arrangements to have it shipped to you...
enjoy your day!

vet's flea market this sunday...

if you have not gone to the vets flea market in long beach, you just have to go!  i think it's one of the best flea markets around...
of course, there's rose bowl, but you can find some great treasures...
let's face it...a lot of the great dealers sell at all the local flea markets anyways...rose bowl, ivc and vets...some even travel out to ventura {which i want to sell at this spring too}...
i will be selling at vets this sunday and the weather is supposed to be perfect for flea marketing...
bring your hat, your cart and sunscreen and do some shopping!
i will be in the white section...hope to see you there!
