A sporting we will go

Today is "Sports Day" for spirit week at my school. (Speaking of which, after I put up my post yesterday, I saw one of the Kindergarten teachers in her wedding dress for Formal Day - it was AMAZING!) I'm a big Twins and Vikings fan but I don't really care about hockey or basketball, which are the two sports in season right now... so I'm supporting spring training! I found this sweatshirt for $5 at an antique shop in the middle of nowhere when I went camping with Nate's family last July. It was a really awesome yet heartbreaking antique shop. We looked through the whole downstairs and all I found that I wanted was this sweatshirt. Then I went upstairs and discovered an entire floor of the most beautiful and impeccable vintage clothes I have ever seen... unfortunately the upstairs was the Historical Society, not the antique shop, so none of it was for sale! Eh, it's good that it's there being displayed and preserved for the future. Besides, I wouldn't have known what to do with Victorian mourning clothes anyway! I sure wish I could've taken some of the '20s to '70s stuff off their hands though!

Formal day

Today is "Formal Day" at my school. The kids and staff are all supposed to dress up today as part of our school's spirit week. They are all adorable, of course. Seeing all the little girls in parkas with big foofy dresses sticking out with snowpants and snowboots on underneath for the walk to the bus stop was just too funny! And all the tiny boys wearing their dad's ties, which are way too long on them.

Ridiculous overhead shot of my fascinator... it's the one I found while antiquing with Nate the day before Christmas. I think it was $8. Not too bad! 

Brass tacks

Unexpected blog break there... I got a bit overwhelmed and something had to give. Buuuuuut I'm back and even have a new camera! After 5+ years with my crappy old point and shoot, I bought a new crappy point and shoot... it's crazy how much better this one works, but it might take me a few days to figure it all out!
