Worship

Last night we had a great time of worship with Mercy Me and a few thousand friends at the Ignite Chicago concert. Mercy Me is one of my favorite bands. It was my first time seeing them in person and I was not disappointed.

Vintage Friday

I bought this Fingerhut suitcase at the thrift store yesterday. It looked to be in great condition. I have been looking for one for a long time. I didn't open it all the way until I brought it home. The inside while in perfect condition held a big surprise.

Oh joy! another case, also in great condition. This one even had the original inventory tag.

I opened the second case and found this!

When I opened the oval case inside were these two bags along with three keys for the luggage and the ads for the cases. I think this is one of my best finds in a long time.

Working on my girl fort

For years Barb has been after me to turn the family room closet into a sewing area. I am finally doing it. Today I painted the space a very pale pink. I've never had a pink room before. This is going to be a total girl fort. I have to find my ceiling light fixture this week. I am also looking for a vintage desk to use as a work space. The carpet is still the original from 24 years ago. It also needs to be replaced. This is about as far as I've gotten in the planning. Any ideas?
