August is always a little bittersweet… emphasis on the bitter in my case… dramatic as that may sound. Every Tuesday (and sometimes Fridays) while my mom is on summer break from her position at school, she and I pick a town or two within 50 miles (sometimes more) to go thrifting and antiquing together. We fill up my little SUV with vintage treasures, crafting supplies, and lots of laughter. I so love our adventures together and wouldn’t trade them for anything (except for maybe – selfishly – a slightly longer summer break from school). ✏️
