Is it spring yet?

We had a great Easter sale and now we are getting ready for Mothers Day.  Before we all know it, the first of May will be here.  Back to Easter though.  All of our customers loved picking an easter egg out of the basket and finding a message or a piece of candy hidden inside.  The message  provided a discount to the purchaser and gave them a little added bonus for the treasure they brought up to the counter.  Who dosen't love a good bargain.   We will definetly do this again next year. I have to mention that after a long week of working in the shop and the very dreary weather we have been recieving I had a wonderful treat on Friday when my mothers cousin from Coeur d' Alene Idaho and her family came in the shop and completely surprised me with a visit.  It brighten my day up so much and as a weird coincidence my two college age daughters just happen to appear at the same time which have never met this part of our family.  Life has it's unanounced blessings from time to time that are indeed what makes life so special.  I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to my relatives who took time out of their day to make the journey into the antque mall.   Now, Mothers Day.  I know what you're thinking, didn't we just finish up with Easter. Well, yes but Mothers Day is just around the corner and if you want to find a great and unusual gift for your Mom then you need to come in to our shop.  Just a reminder that May 9th is the special day.  Sandie and I have already transformed the windows (still in progress as of today) and pictures will be on this blog by weeks end.  So stand by.  Thanks for reading and get yourself into the shop.  See you around.
