A first...

On Sunday we will be having our first Flea Market Selling Experience!


It took us only 10 years to decide to get a space at the local Market...yes, 10 years....well, the check in is before 5:00 am, that means we have to get out of bed at around 4:00 am...wouldn't you thought about it for a long time time too???

It took us a lot less time to get the goodies ready....

... the truck loaded...and the van full!...


If you are in the area on Sunday, June 7th, come flea with us at the Irvine College Flea Market ...our booth alone is worth the trip!!

She sells sea shells...

"She sells sea shells"

She sells sea shells on the sea shore;

The shells that she sells are sea shells, I'm sure

So if she sells sea shells on the sea shore,

I'm sure that the shells are sea shore shells!

Oh come on!...let's hear it one more time...She sells sea shells....just kidding!

Have a fantastic week end!
