The Sun Finally Came Out Again

It was finally nice out again! The weather was gloomy right after I bragged about the one nice day, last Monday, on my blog. We had to get outside and enjoy the sunshine, so we spent the day at Storybook Glen. Storybook Glen is mainly figurines of storybook characters and it has a few live animals, pretty walking trails, swings, and slides.


Brantley loved the tractor.

Brady enjoyed the day. The last time we came to Storybook Glen, Brady slept the entire time in the double stroller. That was when he was a tiny baby. He isn't a tiny baby anymore!

Now, my favorite part; shopping. I actually had a minute to scope out the little gift shop, and I spotted an antique store on our way home. I had Stephen stop and let me jump out to look around at the antique store.



My loot! I found the bedazzled tea light holder and some rock candles at the gift shop. I am already shopping for our "future" house back in Houston. I envision a black and red master bedroom where my new sparkly tea light holder may live and the candles can go in my relaxing bath. If not, I'm sure I can find a good home for them somewhere. Anyway, I picked up the little creamer and the flower plate at the antique store. The brown tea pot was my great grandmothers and this little creamer seems to match. My new finds are china made in England. I did some research and my finds aren't worth much, but this was fun. This looks like my new hobby! The floral plate isn't really my style, too grandma, but I can make it work stuck in a curio cabinet with my other English china finds.
