My sister Kim, my friend Jamie, and I went on a prim shopping trip to Mt. Vernon, Illinois and Arnett's Country Store in West Frankfort. In Mt. Vernon we stopped at The Old Homestead and Brenda's This-n-That. The Old Homestead was having their Fall open house and it was packed full of prim goodies. Brenda's this-n-that was in a new location and it had great stuff also! It was quite overwhelming with so many wonderful primitive items everywhere! Arnett's was so neat as always ~ it is such a treat to go there. Driving up to that gorgeous saltbox is so exciting and the store is just perfect ! Stacee is such a sweet lady ! They are currently moving into her families old cabin hidden back in the trees behind the store. I don't know any other store like it ! The three stores we stopped at are definitely my favorites! What a fun day we had and boy did we get some great stuff ! We spread it all out under a tree in Jamie's yard when we got back so you all can see our goodies ! The pictures are of everything we got between the three of us.

Oh Girl you KNOW how jealous I am! LOL - I was just coming here to ask you something about Arnett's, and BAM! you've already gone! LOL - Mom and I are going to go for her fall open house - Sunday will be easier for us than Saturday, but I'm wondering if we'd be sorry we didn't go on Saturday? any idea if we'll miss anything by going on Sunday - we can do Saturday, just Sunday would be easier.
Love all your goodies - before I read that was from all 3 of you I thought "dang, that girl bought the place out! LOL"
take a look at my blog, we went up to St. Charles last weekend

I've actually been to Mt Vernon and you have made me terribly homesick. It looks like such a nice way to spend a day.
