Treasure Hunting

 Today the boys and I had to go across town to buy some more paint to finish up a project. On the way back we stopped off at one of my favorite antique shops- Spring Antique Mall. They had sooo many goodies today. I was glad that I had my rainy day money on me!

I finally bought a pair of antlers. I was not so sure of the whole decorating with antler thing when it first started. These were a great deal so it was hard to resist.

I was looking thru bins of old post cards and came across this beautiful one.

It is dated 1909! 104 years old and so it had to come home with me. It appears to have been written by a child. One of the sweet sales ladies kept checking on me and the boys and she saw I had this post card and told me her mama was born in 1909. I looked at her quizzically and asked if she was still alive and sure enough she was! The sales lady got her phone and showed me a pic of her mama sitting in an electric car. I loved it! I pray that I get to live to be 104 and healthy or at least have my mama and The Nana around that long!

Look at this precious tiny child's bible. For $1.50 I was not leaving it behind. 

It is dated 1952. I wonder where Roselle Williams Crawford is and just how old she is now.

Here is a mini statue I am going to make over. 

I fell in love with this seascape oil painting too! Everything was at wonderful prices so I just could not help myself. I am going to probably paint the frame.

The boys did some treasure hunting as well. Oldest found a tiny wooden dog statue.

Littliest found an old train post card, a mini bible and a rock statue cat. He has a thing for cats. 

See y'all tomorrow for Treasure Hunt Thursday!
