Jeanine and Sharon making a deal Wendy And Jerry givin Old yeller some love!

Well it was another fun filled weekend at what has become the Annual Field Fest at my house with a group of very close friends and family. We sell alot of junk and eat alot of JUNK! It was a great ending to a very long and exhausting month of Show's, sales, traveling and oh the 9th grade dance! There was only one thing missing my Friend and business partner Kris, she was in a car accident on Fathers day and is still recovering from a serious arm injury, along with many other bumps and bruises. We all missed you Kris!


XOXO

NO DON'T GO! COME BACK WITH MY BABY!

It's happened to me now. My little girl has just grown up over night! The big 9th grade dance was last night, 17 kids, 34 parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles and neighbors all witnessed the transition from childhood to grown-up hood! The 40 foot stretch hummer and all, it really was sooo much fun to see them all dressed up and soo excited for their first BIG night where all the schools in the Puyallup School district get to go to the Puyallup Fairgrounds for annual 9th grade dance.

Funky junk sisters show is a huge success

These two sisters along with the rest of their sisters and family members did an outstanding job at making their very first show such a success. They estimated over 1000 shoppers came thru the doors! They managed to get some top notch dealers to this first show and OMG was I impressed along with almost every customer that I spoke with! Everyone was so impressed by the displays that the dealers had put together!

Thank you ladies for putting on such a fabulous event!


Hope you enjoyed the show

Wow what a whirlwind! Our Farm Chicks adventure was the most fun I've had in a long time! It was exhausting in the best way. The people were all sooo nice and happy, it really was amazing I've never really seen anything quite like it. If you have not made the trip to Spokane Washington you really need to make plans for this show. We met wonderful people from here to the Mississippi, it was amazing the distance everyone travelled to see this show, but now I know why! Heres some of the Super cute chicks that showed up to shop and some pics of the really fabulous Farm chick dealers and their booths that were filled with fabulous finds!
