Are You a Swifty.....

Well we are!!  In case you don't know what that is, (I can't imagine), that means you are a Taylor Swift fan.
Both my daughter and I are BIG fans, we love her!  We first heard her about 4 yrs ago when her first song came out,  Tim Magraw, when she was 15.  She is adorable and writes all her own music which she's been doing since she was about 11, she turns 21 in Dec. All her songs are about things she has experienced, look out you boys who have done her wrong, you WILL be in a song!  Now, some of you may think she's to young to relate to us "older" or should I say more "mature" women, but if you listen to her songs,  they are all about real life, and experiences we have all gone through!  Haven't we all been done wrong by some guy, haven't we all had that person  we thought was our friend only to find out not, and haven't we all fallen madly in love?  Well, that's what she writes about.  She has a wonderful family base and is a fabulous role model for girls of any age.   A couple of weeks ago she played the Bridgestone Arena here in Nashville and I took my daughter Kate for a early 20th birthday present.  It was so much fun, she puts on a great show!  I managed to get a few photos, and got a couple off her web site.

These are some of the things we saw walking to the arena


The signature building in Nashville known as the "Batman Building"






These next 2 photos are for you dog lovers out there
























Happy early birthday #20 Kate!

Till next time.....

Fall Touches.......

Finally finished getting the place ready for fall and it makes me feel GOOD!  All  the fall decor and colors just makes me happy!  It is so my favorite time of the year, there isn't anything about it I don't love!

My flea market, hand carved Swan, $60.00


If you can't tell by the computer and coffee cup in the background, this is where I do my blogging, on the couch, in front of the TV!


This is an OLD pic of me and my dogs when I lived in NC


My favorite yardsale lamp, $7.00, table, flea market, $20.00




A few of my riding hats
Flea market doors, each $20.00




I've had these guys for years and love them



Rusty scale, yard sale this past weekend,  $7.00



My friend and I made these years ago and sold them







These snow shoes I got from a dealer in my old store


Couldn't resist adding this pic of Jenny. Can you tell by the look on her face that she knows I don't like her in my $7.00 thrift store chair!   Think about it, all that hair!
Quilt and pillow on sale from Target a few years ago.

Bella Rustica, Part 2.....

Here are some more photos of the great dealers and their wonderful stuff!







This little beauty is the only thing that came home with me













I'm sure some of you will recognize her!


I loved this shirt, it was $250.00, beautiful soft linen, and yes, I went home without it!




I have this great chicken cookie jar, a neighbor gave it to me years ago.




This dealer's booth was so cute and colorful, her little hats were adorable!  This is the book that she wrote.












They also had great entertainment



Till next time......
