Shop 'Til You Drop...or Freeze

One of my favorite things to do with my girlfriends is to go to Canton, TX to shop. If you've never been, you need to try it. Once a month, the Canton flea market opens for the weekend with all kinds of goodies to be found. Flea market really doesn't do it justice, because we find good stuff there, not just junk. Anyway, J agreed to give me a kid-free day yesterday, so my sweet friend Sharon & I bundled up as only true Canton loyalists do & headed east.
We absolutely froze our hineys off, but we had such a great time & it wasn't crowded at all. Shocker! Speaking of hineys, I was almost rolling on the floor laughing & had tears in my eyes when we happened upon this booth. Sharon had been telling me about seeing students wearing leggings that were made to look like jeans, but I had no idea what she was talking about. The reality was way better than anything I could have pictured, so I had to document it. If you currently own a pair of these, please don't take offense, but they're just not for me.
I didn't end up with any of the things I actually went in search of but still managed to find plenty of great stuff. Sharon went with no particular agenda & ended up with quite a load, but they were all such great deals!
Thanks, sweet friend, for a great day! There's no one I'd rather risk frostbite with!

I went to Canton as well with my mom and MIL! It was cold but great to not have to battle the crowds!
