Another Baby...


One of my best friends emailed me tonight and told me she's expecting a baby boy in February. It was a surprise, but I was sorta expecting that kind of news from her soon anyway. It's her first child and they are both very excited. I'm excited for her, too. Looks like another set of "Baby's First Fiesta" will be going out very soon!

It's almost here...

The Fall Strawser Fiesta auction is almost upon us. I love going to it. There's lots of nice people and lots of nice dishes, too. DUH!!!

We will be driving down there Friday night because it's a three hour trip. We have to deliver a Crosley we sold, too.
Here's a link to the auction site: http://www.strawserauctions.com/

We're home...

Well, we had a really nice day on Saturday. Despite the traffic on the way to our destination, it wasn't a bad day. We took the expressway because it was the fastest route. We were already late because we got a little off course by swinging over to a good antique mall on the way. Found a Red KK Jug(no lid) and John found some "man" goodies, too.

After that we were back on track. We picked up our little car and decided to take more of a leisurely ride back home so we weren't "pushed" off the road from all the maniac holiday drivers. It took longer to get home, but we didn't care. It was a beautiful day and we had all the time in the world.

So, here it is with my two men in the front seats.(Sorry it's such a horrible picture. It was getting dark and I was trying to hurry before the sun went down).

Our New Addition...

No, we're not having a baby! Trust me, we couldn't afford it with all our little addictions...Pottery and Cars!















This is probably one of the best original Pre War Crosley's we've ever seen. The paint is scratched, but it's all original. One of the past owners poured motor oil on the floor to keep it from rusting. Smart idea!!! The floors are Mint!!















Here's a picture of the back seat. I think that was an option on these cars.















I can't believe this car is almost 68 years old!!!! We will be bringing it home on Saturday. It will be right at home with the others...
