(All my Birthday Pyrex!)
Well Readers, This week has been a whirlwind!Thursday after work I had to make an emergency trip to Missouri for personal reasons, that's all I'm going to say about it, don't worry everything is fine now. But Friday morning, on a lighter and brighter note I met up with Patricia who was on vacation in Branson with her family and she and I went to visit Michael to traverse the great state of Missouri for great deals and Pyrex on my Birthday! I apologize for the helter-skelter pictures, my mind really wasn't on blogging but here we go!

We visited the self proclaimed "Biggest antique mall in Missouri" but I was so mesmerized by everything I didn't think to get a picture, I picked up quite a few pieces of Pyrex and some other goodies I'll post once I get them to the Casablanca. After that...
As is tradition on my Birthday Patricia found what she wants to wear to Thanksmass!
It's simple, border line tacky, and too perfect for words... we love it!
(Happy 22nd Birthday to me!)
(Thank You Pat!)
I had a marvelous time, Michael was kind enough to let us spend the night so we could head the next morning. We stayed up till all hours chatting and enjoyed a viewing of "Steel Magnolias" (Patricia had never seen it) and laughed and cried along with the movie. The next morning when Patricia wouldn't wake up to get ready to leave Michael and I found an effective way to get her up!
(Hehehehe!)
After she swore heavily under her breath, recovered we had a breakfast fop chocolate pie and loaded our new treasures in the car. We said our goodbyes and thanked Michael for his hospitality, we really do appreciate him letting us come up and see him! It made my 22nd Birthday so special, thank you
Tune in Wednesday!

I am so starring this for our trip to Springfield, MO in July. Do you have any other places we should visit? Flea markets or food? We plan on going to Funtiques in downtown MO and are staying the historic Best Western on Route 66. =)
Happy Birthday! What great gifts! You really racked up on some sweet Pyrex! :)

Awww! What a fun trip that looks like! Glad you had a great time and a splendid birthday.
Happy B-Day Mick!
May your have a fantastic year!

Miss V :)
Happy Birthday Mick! Looks like you had a heck of a weekend.
Looks like another great time in MO! I know you must be over the moon about your birthday present from Patricia! :)
What a fun whirlwind tour! Happy 22nd!
Looks like you had an excellent birthday! It's always nice to meet another June baby. My birthday is the 7th, my daughter's is the 10th and my son's the 21st. We are all in good company!
Natalie - I stay in that Best Western every year for a conference. I love it! The prices are good, and it has a fun atmosphere. The place that we went first that Mick didn't name is called "Relics" and it is more on the south side of Springfield. There is also a good place that we didn't have time to visit called Ozarks Flea Market or Antiques or something like that.
Michael - Thanks! And we are very excited about the say in the Best Western. The rodeo is in town the weekend we'll be in Springfield too, so we may go to that. Yay!

Another Happy Birthday, which I think officially changes your birthday this year from a celebration "day" to a celebration season!
I discovered your writing through Laurel's Afton Station blog just this week and have enjoyed reading your recent postings. Would you, please, tell your friend Patricia that she needn't go on a diet--that felt "skirt" was made to fit around a Christmas tree--a genuine relic from the past, a Christmas tree skirt!
