this weekend we had cabin fever after a long work week ( for me) and too much time locked up at home (for Preston) - Friday night we hit the road to Louisiana to have dinner with my cousin Erica and her Husband, Casey ( also known in the family as my cousin husband lol) pics below. we have a great dinner at Tokyo ( their version of our Shoguns) super yummy and worth the hour and half one way drive.

Saturday we went out to mom and dads for a bit to celebrate grandma Ware's 100th birthday! wowza! still kickin' it too. Saturday night i babysat because it was my kids mama's birthday, im thankful for her! sincg we we didnt get to spend Saturday afternoon/night together we decided Sunday to be spontaneous and we drove to Athens to a little red barn sale - i have been searching for an old wooded 6+ drawer dresser with some character to repaint for a nursery eventually, they had one i liked at this sale but i think it was a little too pricey for something i want to redo so i will keep looking on craigslist :-/ Tyler area is just hard to find stuff in, hey you guys that dont live here keep an eye out :) thanks. Preston found an old metal sign off of an 18-wheeler that he got for a game room some day so he was happy, we stopped at another antique shop on the way home and it had a lot of antique clothing and everything in-between i want to go back there and take a longer look around. We really enjoyed our day and decided its something we want to do when he is home to have some fun time together. i cant wait till our next trip! :)
a dresser like this would be PERFECT! $50 - but ore city is too far to drive :( but you get the idea - character, real wood not plywood junk. ill keep searching!
