More house news, and some goodie finds

Hey ladies, Were do I start.  Over the last several weeks so much has been going on, and I have just been to tired to post.  Mainly because I couldn't put two sentences together to make any sense.  Not sure if this one will either but I just wanted to let you know what has been going on and what I been up too.
Things are coming along quite nicely on the house.  I just wish it was finished.  We are down to the little things now, but that seems to be taking forever, mainly because we are tired and just don't want to spend anymore time doing it.  We finally got our new doors hung, and I love the front door.  It is so pretty, and it lets in so much light into a area that really has no light.  This is not a actual picture, but it is this style.  I need to paint the door and we have to paint all the trim on the inside and out.  We  used a Ventician bronze hardware on the door and I am very pleased with it.  I can't wait until it is finished.  We also replaced our sliding doors in the family room.  Nothing fancy, just a  typical slider.
We also had our carpet laid upstairs and on the stairs.  Wow what a difference that made.  Ours was so bad, it was almost embarrassing. That took alot of work to get it ready for the carpet layers.  We moved all the furniture and also took up the old carpet.  Then of course, had to make loads of trips to the storage unit. 
This past weekend was the first weekend antiquing that we got away from the house and spent the day .  We had a blast.  I got several goodies. We traveled over to Hagerstown Md. this weekend and scouted out "Crossroads Antique Mall".  Boy did we have fun.  This is a huge place even though the picture doesn't look that large.  There is also two other stores, one being a mall next door...but I had already been there.  Anyhow, a few things I picked up were... 
Jade-ite Fire King Pitcher-5 dollars, I also got a nice little saucer for 1.00 that matches this.



Vintage wooden checkers for 5dollars. I have a collection of old toys, and these were awesome. In great shape.


I also have a extensive collection of Wexford Crystal and I found 4 of these wine goblets for 5.50.  Woo Hoo!


Well those are just a few of the goodies I got.  I also picked up some books, one was a Gooseberry Patch cookbook for 4.00. And you know how I love cookbooks.
I hope to add some shots of the house soon.  Keep your eyes peeled.
Happy Tuesday!
