It’s official, I feel OLD. Waaaaaaaaaaaah. ;(
I wanted a low-key weekend to celebrate my birthday, mainly because we had a lot happening on my actual birthday. Pat held his pistol safety course and Ammo…well…..he was recovering.
Yeah. Sorry dude! Surprisingly enough, he hasn’t even attempted to touch his stitches. I know, GASP! It’s shocking! No cone of shame for the tornado puppy!
We celebrated my 26th with a quiet, fancy-pants dinner up at Mohegan Sun. If you ever visit Connecticut, I’d highly recommend stopping at one of our two casinos. I promise you’ll have a great time even if you aren’t a gambler! We met some of our friends from Massachusetts and had dinner at Todd English’s Tuscany. I think I ate enough bread for the table. Whoops.
The waitress surprise me with this delicious treat and a plate of tiramisu for the table…on the house!
While the boys tried their hand at some blackjack, the girls went shopping. I treated myself to a new Alex and Ani bracelet, and my friend surprised me by buying another one 🙂
On Sunday we made up for the lost day from the pistol class and headed up to the Harwinton Antique Show in Harwinton, CT as my birthday treat. There were 150+ vendors sellers their vintage best. Oh.my.gosh. There were soooooo many amazing finds. I was hoping prices would be a liiiiiiittle cheaper than they were, so I didn’t get as much as I would’ve liked. I also meant to take more pictures than I did, but the amazingness distracted me a bit! Here’s what I got to show you all..
I know. I should’ve brought her home. Dangit. I keep dreaming about this chair.
Oars…windows…white chippy goodness.
Can I just have these please?
I could’ve lived in this woman’s booth. I totally meant to take more pictures but I felt like she might’ve thought I was a weirdo because I came back to the booth twice and just about drooled all over vintage linens.
I picked up a few really great items for the home, which I will disclose more about later! But for now, here’s a sneak peek at one of my purchases 🙂
Ohhhhh I heart it so much. Anyways, stay tuned for some fun stuff coming up this week! 😀
I love your junking adventures!! I want those barn doors soo bad!! They are amazing!! Oh, and all your pics are awesome! You’ve got some great vendors up in your neck of the woods!!
The doors made me drool! My dream is to have big beautiful barn doors in my house someday 🙂
Happy Birthday! Though, you’re not allowed to feel old at 26 because that makes me geriatric. 🙂 I LOVE that bin! And that wheelchair is awesome – that’s something I’d buy and have no way to use it even for decor, but just because I liked it.
I agree! I think the wheelchair would look great in a room, maybe in a corner with a plant or something on it!
How fun! what a great time! I hate it when the prices are a bit too steep… At least you got some fab pics! 😉 Can’t wait to hear more about your purchases!
Happy 26th! Enjoy it…it goes downhill after 30. 😉 Cheers!
oh, and I have to agree with Sarah…that wheelchair was awesome. 😉
