A Great Weekend!

We debated about what to do for our anniversary. We seriously thought about going to Vegas. We love the Venetian. But it is hot there too! And I wanted some cooler air....so we went back to our place of dreams....where we WISH we had a cabin or trailer....to Pine.

It was sooooo beautiful. I went to garage sales and almost every antique store around.

This group of stores has a fence made like leaves...the flowers grow up around it.

This is one of the stores decorations....

Then it rained....I love when it rains up there. It really cools off and smells so good.

It took a few tries to get this sunflower....see the black bumble bee? But it was moving in the wind....

We stopped at a new antique store. It actually is the owners home also. Pine Station Antiques....

I think my cousin had one of these or similar to it when we were kids. Isn't it cute....and yellow - Katherine!!

Cute little treat stands made from teacups...

And a whole room of antique train items...

This was the arbor walking in...so pretty. And she was so kind, she said bring Bentley in too...so hubs got to look too!

On the way home today, we got more rain....

Ok, I chuckled with this picture...cuz I told my hubby that the women on the blog will laugh that I show rain drops....hey, we live in the desert....rain is a HOT TOPIC!

Oooh, this could be interesting!

But, no, it quit raining LONG before we got home.

What did I buy....well, nothing too exciting. I got some Polly Pockets for my granddaughter to play at our house, a Feb 1954(my birth) National Geographic with the greatest Coke ad on the back, and some adorable, and I do mean adorable napkin rings....I will show at a tablescape.

No antiques...not that I didn't see some I would have loved. There was an antique sewing machine....very rare...but, hmmmm, not in my sad budget. Lots of OLD milk glass....and some crockery....but, I enjoyed and left them behind.

Bentley was so cute...he loves going on trips with us. Of course, I don't know if it is the trip, or the goodies "Daddy" gives him. The vet asked my husband, you aren't giving him table scraps are you?? Hubby said, " noooo, we don't give him scraps, he gets fresh bought just like us!" Bentley has learned that food comes out of those talking sliding windows!!

Thank you for all the well wishes and sweet comments for our anniversary. My husband is always amazed that so many people that I have never met will leave congrats on our anniversary....but we bloggers KNOW how it is!
