Monday at the Mall

A little late with my "Monday at the Mall" post today.  The grocery store, laundry pile, and homework folders were calling louder than Blogger today. 

I did make some mental "Monday at the Mall" notes as I went about my Monday routine though....

Noticed lots of pumpkins popping up at the Kroger .... bought ingredients for my first batch of chumpkin bread (my sweet friend just filled me in on this new slang for "chocolate-chip/pumpkin bread!"  yum!!!).... and was also tempted to enjoy my first pumpkin spiced latte of the season! 

A few more pumpkin filled shots of our booth today...

 It is Pumpkin Time friends!

Trick or Treat

At my house, everyone has picked out their Halloween costumes and already played in them enough to have numerous rips and tears already.... At least we are getting our money's worth! Our Ninja, Batman, and Mermaid are counting down the days until Candy Day!

Little Mr. 58 Batman can't figure out why we only trick-or-treat one night.... He thinks we should get this party started now!

Booth 58 is sporting some special "tricks" and "treats" already too. 

Don't want to miss out on the orange and black... because before you know it we will be seeing red and green!

"Hole in the Wall" Monday at the Mall

Another Monday at the Mall.... With a new "hole in the wall" ... so to speak...

 

Mr. Ella and Ella Elaine decided to take down a door in the wall their two booths share... You can now walk thru his booth into hers....And this "hole in the wall" now lets ACM customers take a peak at Booth 58 from a new vantage point... Can you see it?

It's always fun to have a new perspective ...

Hoping that this Monday brings you a new view in life too...
 

Perhaps something fresh to enjoy today?
 

Happy Monday

Monday at the Mall

It's the third week of school... and we are getting into that routine finally.  It is hard to switch gears and fully embrace this new schedule.  But we are getting there...

 Monday at the Mall .... Some of the "routine" sights at Booth 58 today....

crank up the fan... it's still hot!  But we are waiting for fall any day now - right?

 silver and books and black and white photos

We found a great stash of ironstone pieces on our last junkin' trip... Come by to see what we dug up!

Happy Monday Yall!

Today

Today we spent some time at the booth "fluffin" as we call it....

Today 2 "little boys" watched the diggers .....  Front row seats still.

Today we are wishing for fall to get here....

We hope your "today" has been good too!

Monday at the Mall

Hooray... Hooray!!  School Starts Today! 

I have a third grader and a kindergartener this year.  We all packed up, took those important "first day" photos, and headed to school.  The house is a lot quieter.... and this mama has a list a mile long... the "Once the Kids are Back in School List"... Anyone else have one of those?

I'll start with a Monday at the Mall post.... I haven't highlighted many other vendors lately and there  are a bunch.  The mall has been seeing lots of changes.... So many wonderful booths!

Last week the kids and I explored upstairs at ACM.  They always beg to go up there.... There is always something fun to find....Tons of new dealers up there.... tons of cool stuff.... Here are a few of the goodies we spotted:

 Come see for yourself... There is so much to see at ACM today!

Front Row Seats

I ventured up to ACM with my three little helpers one more time before school starts on Monday.  The last time I took all three to the booth it ended in a bit of chaos.... and I vowed to "never do this again!"  Well, I broke my promise and decided to do it just this one more time.

Surprisingly, it went really well.  (Bribery works wonders!)  And it helps that ACM has front row seats to the "best show in town" for a two year old boy... or any boy for that matter!   Today the "diggers" on Virginia were in full swing... and I think Little Mr. 58 could have sat there all day... But, this mama wasn't up for testing that theory out!  We were in and out with just enough time to snap a few pics of our spot for you.
