great tag sale finds.

So often I would look on other blogs and see the beautiful items other people got from tag sales or second hand shops . Some items they could redo to give them the cottage look. I have been so envious of these people because around where I live, you just don't find those things. Not until today anyway. My son and his wife decided to take a ride and stop at some tag sales. They called and invited me to go. Well, not far from my house there was a tag sale in a small barn type of garage. Oh my goodness, I hit the mother load. There was so much fabric and patterns and old jewelry and linens. I was so excited. It was almost time for the tag sale to close and I ran out of money. As it happened to work out, the lady having it works with me at school and she held the items for me that I wanted and I will get them tomorrow. When I get them I will post pictures. I can't wait!!

I went to the Washington County Fair this weekend with my oldest son Shane and his wife Eva and my grandson Sebastian. the sun was in the poor baby's face and we tried to find a hat for him. This was the best we could do. He seemed to like it
