The City Flea & The World's Longest Yardsale

My sister and I LOVE spending quality sissy time together, as much as we can. We're each other's only sibling ;) Two things we love to do together are shopping and eating! So, once we discovered that the City Flea and World's Longest Yard Sale were coming to town, this past weekend, we HAD to make a day of it! Here's some of the fun things we did that day.

We hadn't eaten lunch, yet, and decided to grab a little something sweet to hold us over. Have you tried StreetPops!? Well if not... YOU SHOULD. Their unique flavors are quite refreshing and extremely enjoyable! The flavor we shared (which we should've gotten our own) was the Ginger Peach Lambic and I must say... it was the perfect combo of a sweet peach with a burst of ginger zing! Yum. Yum.

Here's some more pics of our fab finds from The City Flea!

Now onto the World's Longest Yardsale! But before browsing around, we had to grab some burritos delicioso at Lime Taqueria in Mainstrausse! My sister ordered the yummy black bean burrito as a salad and I ordered the fish tacos! Mmmmmmm...
Now off to the yardsale!


Below are the finds we snagged and went home with! My fave has to be my sister's unique foldable chair find. Check it out!

And lastly, I'll leave you with the finds I snagged...a wagon for the twins! Thanks Sa for helping me lug that thing around ;) & I also grabbed a vintage alphabet workbook. I'm going to rip the pages out and frame them for kiddies playroom! Yay!

My sis and I had an awesomely fun-filled day and we hope to go on one of our sisterly adventures again... soon ;-) Thanks for hanging out and putting up with this preggy lady all day, Sa! I love you! You're the best.

Did you get to stop by The City Flea or the World's Longest Yardsale? If you did, I'd love to hear all about it! If not, how was your weekend? Hope to hear from you and thanks again for stopping by!
