A recent score from a local rescue mission a week before Christmas...I thought it was the perfect gift for me.  I bought it b/c I loved the detail and thought it had nice legs (aahhh, remember when...)  It needs some love and I can't wait to refinish it.  I just couldn't pass it up for only $30.

p.s.  The New Year display is courtesy of my two toddler boys...they wanted to decorate like Mommy.  Too cute.
