the truck ... pick up ...

... just the other day I took a day out of 'homeschooling' with the kids and went for a drive in the country with hubby to pick up this old beauty ...  

... and as you can see it's pretty roached !!!

Still deciding if we'll try to re-sell it, OR  just clean it up for a little Shabby Chic photoshoot which sounds like a fun project to me ..

... this one is at The Prairie in Texas ... {Rachel Ashwell's B & B }

black friday

... so after an 8 (almost 9) hour drive, i finally arrived home today.  i received a lovely welcoming - the kids were all sitting on our fence madly waving as i drove in - and little Disco also rushed out to jump all over me as well.  (Disco is our Jack Russel).

i only realised at lunch time that it was Black Friday and while i'm not really superstitious, i was secretly glad that I didn't have any flat tyres to deal with on the last part of my drive.  From the tiny town of Nelia, it's another 2 hours of almost all dirt road with sharp pieces of white gravel to our house, so it's always a concern...  whew...

hope you all had a fab FriDAy   xx
