I was actually home for a week almost and then my hubby and I decided

to go visit our friends in Kansas ~

( this isn't their house, just an old house I think is cool )

When we are there I try and hit some of the auctions and antique malls that they have because I always seem to find great stuff at them :)

We went to this one antique junk shop because it is so much fun

to look around at the TONS of things everywhere ~

It is very overwhelming though and pretty

high priced ~

It cracks me up though when people have all this "stuff" that

has probably been there for literally ever and it is priced so high that

it will probably be there for another forevers !

Well it is time to find more treasures ~ Talk to you soon !

We are in Kansas for some antiquing and just hanging out at our friends house ~

They live in an old house in a small town that doesn't even have a manned Post Office ~ It is fun to visit and go to the little towns around and shop at the antique stores ~

The guys shot their guns so we had to go out and be Annie Oakley which was kind of fun too ~

We made tons of salsa because their garden was overflowing with tomatoes ~ it is soooo yummy !!

We will be on our way home tomorrow but it has been fun !

I got a wild hair to go visit my friend in Kansas this week for a couple of days and do some antique shopping ~ they have wonderful shops there that I love to explore ~ I always feel like I am at Mayberry because the towns are like stepping back in time ~

I just took a carry on suitcase with me and packed really light so I could carry my treasures home ~
We hit the ground running from the time I got off the plane until the next evening when I flew home ~

I found some gorgeous china and really could have left it for my next driving visit or ship it home but I wanted to see if I could carry it with me ~ I was so excited that I could put all of my fun treasures in my suitcase ~ It was sooo heavy, you should have seen me trying to lift it in the overhead ~

I was thrilled with the pretty pink rose plates and also loved the blues too !

On the way to the airport we stopped at a huge antique mall but only had a short amount of time to explore it ~ I will be headed there first next visit which has to be real soon !

This is a picture of one of the booths ~ there was so much to look in this mall and each booth was jammed packed ~ it was kind of overwhelming ~

It was a fun but quick trip so I have to go back soon ~

I will be listing the new treasures on my website in the Vintage Finds category this weekend ~
