THEN~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My Mom and I went thrifting last week.
Marva (a local resale shop) had 50% off everything in the store! SCORE!!!!!

I am moving to 4th grade this year and their theme is Rock n Roll. I was told to be on the look out for records. Well I have been looking but they are not cheap...that is until I went to Marva!!!
I found 100 records for $5.

The pitcher was $4 and 3 birdcages were $5 sized small, medium, and large.
Notice the lazy susan that I bought in Kansas? Pretty blue......

This is my front porch redo for Summer. Thought the stool matched and was a great place to prop your feet up and watch the action.

The other side of my porch with my other stool!
I have already used this stool while watching a thunderhead move in! FUN!!!!

See?? My amazing hubby sitting on our porch watching
the storm with the glow of citronella candles!
