Went to the new Border's bookstore that just opened near us, could have stayed there for the day. Bought three books and a magazine, and my grand daughters bought some books, I would have bought a lot more but----
Also posted a picture of my old children's roll top desk.

Nancy Jo-
That is such a cute little roll top! I could find so many places to have such a sweet little desk. I can’t imagine selling it. I am glad it found a good home. It looks like your plant loves it!

Alee,
I don't know why she would sell it, if it had been in my family I know I would be keeping it. Hey it is in my family now, so I'll keep it. I didn't pay but 10.00 for it, so it wasn't the money she needed. But it is a cute little thing.
You must live near the Mary Jane farm right?

Nancy-
I am lucky enough to live just 8 miles from the Farm. I have been out there a couple of times for the Farm Fairs and such and I have even met MaryJane and Meg. :) They are such sweet people and are just as wonderful as the book and magazines make them out to be. I am hoping to meet little Stella Jane someday too!
I have a couple of family heirloom piece of furniture including two hope chests. I have noticed a trend of people getting rid of their family furniture recently and instead buying stuff from places like IKEA. I would rather have good solid heirloom furniture any day!
