This past week I traveled to the
Dallas/Ft. Worth area
to spend a little time
with family
Mom and I did a lot of shopping
|
Here are some of my finds
love the vintage note board |
the wire basket came from Home Goods
it will go in my booth to display shabby frames
|
Found this great old bottle
which I decorated for my booth
and the Madonna and child post card
which sits on one of the floral frogs I found
at my local flea market |
|
and this container for $2.00
it will either be stenciled
or decorated with burlap
I'm not sure which
We stopped by my niece's house
to drop off a birthday present
for my great nephew
I bought him a bug catcher kit
which included this gun
that sucks up insects
He and his brother loved it!!!
Next I visited my daughter
her family
and their newest member
Brodie
He is providing lots of summer entertainment
for my grands
Saturday morning before I headed home
my sweet son-in-law took me on a
Mom & Son date
We stopped by Starbucks for coffee
and then took a drive around the lake
It's one of his favorite places to
take nature pictures
We headed down this path
to the lake
He taught me a lot about my I-Phone camera
and gave me a list of "must have"
apps to use with photos
Dash of Color
Fisheye Pro
Simply HDR
Long Expo Free
(check them out)
I love going back to see family
but I don't love the big city traffic
however once I'm out of the big city
and back in South Texas
it's smooth sailing....

I'm just a country girl at heart

Looks like you had a wonderful time with your family.
ReplyDeleteShopping with Mom is fun... and nature walks with your son in law- Awesome. I can tell you have a strong love of family and they love you.
My son in law just brought home a whole pallet full of patio pavers for the step near my pool! Now when we raise and lower the steps...we have a place to stand instead of the grass! :)
He's so thoughtful.
...living South of Dallas IS NICE, I don't care for city traffic either. Pat
Sounds like a lovely time. You have some fabulous finds there. Can't wait to see what you do with them!
