Rugs, A Wedding, More Rugs, Miss B,...

I got my closest friend out to a small but very well done rug show at a historic mill
I love this rug. lots of background but the simplicity it wonderful.

I did not keep track of who's rug etc I am sorry to say. but this was just wonderful.
After that we headed to Maine.

My nephew and his very sweet bride got married on Sat
night. It really was a wonderful time.

Then bright and early Sun morning we headed for the Sandwich fair.
we had some time before we met up with Miss B so we went in the arts barn.
this is so wonderful in person. you can see the antique card it came from on the far
right.

While this is not my taste it was very well done.
and it was done by Jane McGowan Flynn the grand daughter
of Pearl McGowan. 
Ok rugs aside it is time to go to the good old sandwich fair
with my favorite girl.

we won the water balloon game she got a teddy bear. We went on 2 rides
and Gammie bought her a helicopter to push along in the crowd and over the back
of their heels of the people in front of her.
So it was a great day.
***
And on top of all of this excitement we got a new flat screen TV, I know ,I know we are late
coming to the the TV thing but for a bit less than 200.00 for a 32" some fancy cord from my son-in-law that I
installed with my breath held and we are good to go. We have our feet up watching the game.
while reading the free Sunday paper we got at the fair. A great afternoon is underway.
***
I will be posting more rugs this week and I found one thing thrifting that makes me laugh
everytime I walk past it.....Oh and best of all I have a give away coming this week.!

First thing every moring before you arise say out loud,"I believe." three times.

Sweet pic of you and Miss B. She has gotten so big.
Love all the rugs, especially the first one that appears to be a child's drawing.
Hope your week starts off well.
Hugs :)

Cathy, Miss. Baby is no longer a baby, she has grown into such a sweet little girl. Where does the time go? I love the Halloween rug, I'd love to give it a home...I am glad you had such an enjoyable time at the fair. Mr. Dog Trot and I are looking forward to taking Travis next year, I can't wait to ride the merry-go-round! Have a lovely evening, Julie.

Oh my goodness, that Halloween rug is AMAZING! I would never even set foot on it though, it would go straight up on the wall, like the piece of art that it is!
