Deals, Deals, Deals

I am one for a good deal, and I thought I would share a few good deals I have come across this week.

You all know how much I love Paper Coterie, well, How Does She is having another FREE $15 credit towards any purchase. Head on over to How Does She to get your code. It expires on May 14th. Great gift idea for Mother's Day. I can't wait to order the book above "My quotable kids"!

The Queen's Bakery- Is having a great deal right now on Travelzoo for $20 for tea for 2 (a $46 value). So happy my friend V and I are going to have a date there. Remember my post here about this place and how much I loved it!

I love this groop dealz site, daily deals from boutiques. Love the chevron table runners they are featuring right now too.

Happy shopping for deals!
Until next time,

The Groves Antique Market at the OC Park

This past weekend I went to the Antique Market at the OC Great Park and let me tell you I was actually impressed. I kind of felt like I was on American Pickers or Pawn Stars, there was SO many random, eccentric, neat, old vintage things to look at. I was with my two sweet kiddos who asked about a million questions on what things were! I spent about a little less than 2 hours there and didn't really feel like I was able to look at everything, not to mention I was way to worried about my kids touching everything! Next time I will definetly go kidless and with a few girlfriends (not sure if the hubby would appreciate it as much as I do, but maybe). The vintage jewelry was great, I want to buy a few pieces next time I go. It is only open the first Sunday of every month from 7am-2pm, free parking and admission, I suggest getting there early, as it was already packed and I was there at 8 am. I found some old books for the kids and myself, a "London" spoon for my mother in love, and I bought my dad an old croquet set for his birthday. There were so many other things I would have loved to purchase, but like I said I was with two little impatient kiddos! I snapped a few photos of some things that caught my eye.

Love the old kid chairs, Taelor loved the pink chandelier, I think the old cash register and the old blue camera would look great as decorations around the house and I would LOVE an old type writer (the kids were so intrigued at what this was!)

I would love to buy some old vintage, metal trucks for Ethan's room, loved the old rocking horse, I really want an old suitcase especially in that blue color, an old Betty Crocker cook book (you know those have the best recipes your grandma made), and the croquet set I bought my Dad!

Can't wait to go again in May! Who wants to join me?!? I think I might be on the look out for more Antique markets..... I know my mom and dad are cringing right now for all those times I said I was bored in "those" stores when I was a kid! Now I know how they felt when my two were bored after an hour! Oh well one day they will appreciate it too!

Until next time...

Cotton On Kids

I was so excited to see Cotton On Kids open up this weekend at the Irvine Spectrum! I was their second customer! I was surprisingly impressed with their selection for girls and boys (more of the girls than the boys, but LOVED the denim!) First of all I wanted to buy every pair of colored denim jeans they had for both my son and daughter. Their selection of flats was SO cute and for $12.95 you can't beat that price, I think she just might be getting a new pair every few weeks! Their prices were fairly reasonable for a cute dress or denim, ranging around $30. Now I wouldn't buy a basic tee for that much but a good dress or button up boy shirt for a special outfit I would. They had ADORABLE accessories for girls, I mean my daughter was oohing and awwing over all of the necklaces, think Forever 21 jewelry but for little girls! This will be a must stop for me whenever I am at the Spectrum. So happy to find a new shop with reasonably priced clothing!

My daughter's wish list

My son's wish list

For babies....SO cute especially the bloomer shorts!

P.S their site doesn't do the store justice, there was so much more in the store :)

Wish List

This Saturday is MY Birthday!!! I doesn't phase me that I am getting older, life just gets better as the years come so I never mind celebrating a birthday! I grew up in a family that made birthdays a big deal so they were always special and a great, fun filled day! I plan on spending the day with my sweet little kiddos and hubby and a date night with the handsome man in the evening. I am sure my dad will be the first one to call bright and early in the morning! I love my dad, he never misses a beat when it comes to birthdays! So as I am approaching the strange number of 33 (I don't know why the two threes look so funny to me) my hubby wanted to know what was on my wish list and so I thought I would share (and hope that he reads this post too). Of course I know he will only pick one thing but at least I can give him a few different choices right?!?

I love free things...$30 FREE

I was checking up on the blog How Does She and I came across her post a few days ago that was giving away a $30 credit towards ANY purchase to everyone from Paper Coterie. WOW did I love all their products they had to offer. They offer journals, photobooks, calendars, memory boxes, cards and more. So this momma ordered a photo book and with the $30 towards my purchase I only paid $6 and some change for shipping! I can't wait to get my book. So head over to How Does She to get the coupon code, but you better act fast it expires on Wednesday the 16th (TODAY!!) (Sorry I wished I would have seen the post earlier). I hope you get a chance to order a book or journal. I can't wait to order a 2012 journal from them!

Until next time...
