Hello and welcome to another Vintage Thingies Thursday hosted by
http://coloradolady.blogspot.com/search/label/Vintage%20Thingies%20Thursdays Today I would like to share some pictures of our vacation to Victorian Cape May in NJ about 2 yrs ago. I love this town, with it's little shops, and beautiful victorian houses. My hubby and I absolutely love antique shops, and flea markets. He has the bug as bad as I do. So, on one of our afternoon excursions, we found this antique shop. When I see places like this I actually get butterflies in my stomach. Well, not so for our teenage daughter. She tries to be a good sport, but she does not like them at all. Suprisingly, when we stopped at this shop, she decided to come in, and take a look around. There were vintage things filling every nook and cranny. I found this silly looking hat, and wanted hubby to take a picture of me wearing it. Dear dauhter joined right in, and put one on too, and here we are!
This place was a blast from the past. I was really enjoying all of the "eye candy" they had. Imagine my surprise when I turned around to see my daughter wearing this! We were all having a good time in here! What a sport! Should I dare to push it even further?
We were on a roll here guys! We were both laughing so hard, and I said here try this on, and this, and this! This was just too good to be true. Oh look at Susie homemaker here, now isn't this cute?
Even hubby got into the act. They must have thought we were a little kooky in there, but hey, we're on vacation, and we were having fun!
This is dear daughter posing in front of the bed and breakfast we stayed in. That was such a nice family vacation! Although I didn't buy a thing in that shop, we had a blast! Thanks for coming by for a visit!

Oh I LOVE Cape May! My husband is from Bridgeton - every time we visit family we stay a night or two down there - they have the best antique shops! Looks like you had a blast!
Cheers!
First of all, I ADORE the little tea pot or creamer (whichever it is) serving as a vase in your header picture!!!
Looks like a fun time was had by all in your vintage "fair."
:-)
It looks as though you had great fun.
I love looking through antique shops..however, my husband does not..*sighs.He can always be left home tho.. :).

What a fun family day; your daughter is a great model!
I discovered your blog today while I was over at Carols and let me tell you, yours is the sort of blog that, when I open it, gets me all excited!!
A. because I love pink and
B. because I love roses!!
I enjoyed looking at your photos. Your hubby looks great in the hat!
How great your family joined in this fun...I can not imagine mine having such a fun time...but I would have loved it. Have a great VTT.
By the looks on her face, I would say Daughter #3 much prefers traveling over domestic chores! Big smile with train case in hand. Wearing an apron gives her a wrinkled up nose. Too funny! :)
Love that you had such a fun time! This store looks like the one that I work at: www.roomwithapast.com !!!
Thanks for your kind comment about my mannequin!
Great shop! Looks like you guys had a great time!
Vintage clothing-definitely the way to get that vintage bug started!
It's always wonderful when someone shares your passion and a bit of fun! Great family memory.
I love it!! looks like you guys were having a ball. Who cares if the shop people thought you were kooky. Love those vintage train cases. Father in law got me a few so I could refinish them. Now I love them.

Hello, Debbie,
I am glad you all had such a fun time. How lucky you are that hubby like to go searching for treasures with you. Your daughter is so cute, and she was having fun, too. Have a wonderful weekend. Vicki
What a wonderful sounding trip. My kids are in their twenties now and I don't get to spend as much time with them.
I'm glad you're taking the time to enjoy yours.

Your hubby is such a good sport...mine hates to have his photo taken, especially if he knows it might land on the blog. ;) I love how you all got in on the act. Thanks for the visit! :)
What a wonderful time it looks like you all had. I know what you mean by the teenaged daughter just putting up with it sometimes...but she looks like she got into the swing of things. When my daughter was a teenager I found something that she liked to collect and that made our trips much more fun! Now she loves old things.
Oh, too cute...wonderful photos of you and the family! I love the hats...they are so fun! Glad you have a wonderful tie!
God Bless!

I loved your photos, Debbie..looks like ya'll had a blast. I'm so glad.
Thanks for stopping by to see the old bakers rack..someday I will replace it with a piece of real furniture. :)
I like some autumn colors but never orange...it is my least fav. color of all. I use my reds year round in flowers and decor....my favorite color of all.
I am still enjoying the little tin wall pocket you sent me...just love it in my red kitchen. I have a post coming up...not sure when it's prescheduled but I'll link back to your site on it.
hugs, bj
Looks like SO MUCH FUN my friend! This is something I'd have LOVED to do with my girl!
