I was elated and honored to receive a little visit from my UT family last week. It was "shop till you drop" with these fine ladies around. We hit every antique store along the Mesa to Pine highway. Would you have guessed that the thrift store in Pine, AZ was where all the good deals were? We were having so much fun relaxing in the mountains that the only time I snatched a pic was of Mr. Bingley taking a gleeful bath.
Thankfully, my shoppers extraordinaire mom and sister let us stay home long enough to do some projects, too. The crafty duo taught me how to reupholster some chairs. Boy did my grandmother's old chairs need a makeover or what? I'm loving the results.
We also completely did the girls bedroom. This occassion is worthy of a little Hallalujah shout! as the "before" was so sorry I didn't even muster up the strength to take a picture of it. My sister, Candace Olson, I mean Fancy Nancy, offered all her design savvy. I love the results so much I do a little swoon every time I open their bedroom door. Pictures of the finished result will be forthcoming. . . a little something to look forward to ;)

I love the fabric on the chairs! I am anxiously looking forward to the next reveal. It was great talking today.
I too want to see the girls' room. The chairs look great! What a change.
And really cute bags you all are toting. Love yours and Nancy's especially!
I'm sad I couldn't come with! But glad you all had fun without me. Next time, I'll totally be there. :)
Can't wait to see the pics of the girls' room. I have been meaning to do Patricks room too. Just one of those things that is stumping me... Maybe fancy Nancy would like another AZ trip?
Who is this Fancy Nancy you speak of? Just kidding, although my kids suggested I be Fancy Nancy for Halloween, ooh la la. And I can't wait to see the pics of the girls room finished! Get stagin sister!
That was a great yogurt outing picture of the three of us. We must have been finished eating that delectable dessert. Charlie is so cute in the kitchen sink in Pine. O'Pee would love the chairs. They look great. Can't wait to see the finished Girls' room. Thank you so much for such a fun time while we were there. Anxious to see you all at Christmas.
