Yes I'm back at the Monticello in Portland. I just couldn't stay away! The gals oops, and guy (sorry Hunter)that work there, are so incredibly great and I really missed everyone. Anyway to make a long story short I'm back again as of this week. Thankyou Joyce and Kelly for having me:).
As you can see my space is smaller than the last but as usual, I was able to pack in alot. My whole life is a bit cluttered right now so it fits right in. I had fun putting the background up in the booth ,thinking I would come really prepared, I arrived with four drills, all of which proved to have dead batteries within about five minutes. Such as is my life as of late. Oh well finally got it together and built character while in the process.

One of those things is the quick passing of time. It continues to pass ever so quickly and here we are in a new year and I was just getting use to writing 2009. I have gone through some big changes around here recently and time has been precious. Blogging has not been priority but I did want to mention how much I am honored to be again at the Monticello Antique Market this month . I am in the front window and of course it is nearly impossible to get good pictures through a window, but here is my attempt. As always this is a wonderful store and ever changing .Try and stop by as there are lots of wonderful items.

The sale at the Monticello in Portland is going fabulous. All the venders have done an outstanding job of displaying their holiday treasures. The shopping mob hit and left things a bit scrambled over the weekend. I was able to get away for the day on Tuesday with my favorite 10 year-old, we packed our space full. It was a great day as we spent the rest of the day together. It is our tradition that each kid gets a "special day" with Mom in the weeks before Christmas. They choose what we do and plan out the entire day. Thankfully Caden wanted to visit The Monticello on his day. Worked out well for both of us.

This weekend is the start of the most wonderful Christmas show at the Monticello in Portland. We are doing a small scale area this year due to the duties of owning a store this year. I encourage all of you to stop by if you get up to Portland it is truly wonderful. Besides being the most awesome antique store in Portland, the help there is amazing and I am honored to be part of the show again this year.
