Between all the painting and packing I have been doing I have been trying to sneak in some trips to the thrift store. I know it sounds weird, but even when the thrift store is packed full of people it calms me. Looking through racks and piles of junk is so therapeutic. Finding treasures is [...]

Swimming and Thrifting

Here are some shots from our very relaxing weekend. Saturday we went thrifting, where I found all sorts of great things (and only spent $9!).
