Our building trades class at the Vo-Tech does the same thing each year allowing the house to become larger the next year.<br /><br />Cindy, you have a wonderful vacation. Thanks so much for checkin' in. I'm sad to say I'm still havin' problems. I really pushed myself for our big Fourth of July bash here on the Ponderosa and Monday Hubby counted eleven new shingle blisters on my back. I had to laugh when he said they were aligned like the big dipper! Heeehehhe! He has ordered me to do nothing more strenuous than takin' a dip in my pool. Ya know I don't sit still well but I'm gonna take it easy and try to heal up. It's been over two months now and it's gettin' real old!<br /><br />You take care and have the best time sweetie! :o)Nezzy (Cow Patty Surprise)https://www.blogger.com/profile/10175389676508928061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8453105784166847940.post-67040730340575584502010-07-05T05:23:58.634-05:002010-07-05T05:23:58.634-05:00Hi Cindy!

It was almost just like that one--from the early to mid 60's--now you have gotten me into trouble because I am going to be on the hunt for one!!! Have a great day.

I was so blown away by your last bargain that I can't even remember the rest of your post! I had a metal doll house when I was a child, and I often price them at stores, and those things are EXPENSIVE! You could probably sell that and make a huge profit. It is so cute though, and it will be fun to decorate it. What a lucky find. Oh! Now I remember, your blog book looks so pretty. What a neat giveaway. Hope you have a wonderful holiday weekend. laurieBargain Decorating with Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13582640485560903639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8453105784166847940.post-37896757050101453622010-07-01T16:13:42.857-05:002010-07-01T16:13:42.857-05:00Boy, you really have been winning some great treas...Boy, you really have been winning some great treasures.

And..yes, our Dawn is a special girl! It felt so good to give her a big hug. <br />And the book! I have tried and tried to get one done and I just ran into snags. One ended up costing over two hundred dollars. Can you write to me, if you don't mind, and tell me how you did it? They said mine was too long or something. Can you imagine such a silly thing? :)<br />And the doll house. I have been searching for one of those for a long time too..<br />I have looked on ebay and those are pricy...so I will just keep looking.<br />I loved this post!!<br />Sending you love and a huge hug!<br />MonaWsprsweetly Of Cottageshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17990765326246470929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8453105784166847940.post-21077422704111450962010-07-01T09:53:51.057-05:002010-07-01T09:53:51.057-05:00I love your new black top Cindy!

I have seen some of the blog books and I think I may have one done of my family blog (private) and give it to my parents for Christmas this year. Your book looks great! I love old wooden chairs and used to have quite a collection but when I downsized I had to let them go. I love your new chair and its wonderful bright summer color! It makes me want to run out and see if I can find some for that price!<br /><br />~ TracyMs. Bake-ithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08788863782876226680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8453105784166847940.post-67709639967746587362010-07-01T09:51:03.053-05:002010-07-01T09:51:03.053-05:00great finds...love the book....great finds...love the book....Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11745604261113221887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8453105784166847940.post-39956612612707492762010-07-01T09:03:37.505-05:002010-07-01T09:03:37.505-05:00Yea for all of your wins and goodies!

TJ Maxx has the most wonderful items to select from, and what a bonus, enough left over for a black number. Got to love that. You look so precious sweetie.<br /><br />That rooster tray is so delightful. How wonderful that Dawn could send everyone a little something. It fits perfectly into your cottage. So country.<br /><br />The blog book I adore. Now that I have celebrated my year, I too would love to have a hardback book made of my blog. I could reflect back on how I have grown. Your's looks beautiful. Thank you for sharing. I love it.<br /><br />Have a beautiful 4th sweetie. I am still under lockdown for another week. I go back July 9th and am hoping he will release me back into the real world again. Tomorrow is my ear, nose and throat appointment. They will check out the hoarseness. I think it is just from all the coughing but we shall see.<br /><br />Many hugs sweetie and so much love...Sherry<br /><br />P.S. When are you making another trip to Phoenix?
