Putting the “A” in Auntie

Like most of you this time of year is incredibly busy for me.  The first sighting of summer brought smiles to the faces of many. It was a good thing summer cooperated since we had out door events planned for the entire weekend. 

Its hard to believe Miss Emily, the youngest of my beautiful nieces graduated from high school on Friday.

And of course no one would be better suited for addressing the group, than she, sharing with us the profound teaching  of Dr. Seuss.

Her sisters arrived with their babies to celebrate with the family.

Inspired by Tiffany, the original Fancy Farmgirl, a Sunday brunch brought out friends and family.

What a perfect day, for celebrating with a darling girl that makes this Auntie a proud one!

Enough fun for me, it is time to get my working boots back on.

I am off to Denver later this week, where Sheila and I will be attending the Old Glory Antique Show.

I’m bring back lots of treasures to sell, because the next day I’m off for a road trip to San Diego!

I will have details posted soon, but you can see what Cindy has to say about the trip.  Terri has some details that you can check out, it’s her truck pulling the trailer. 

We will be doing a Sale at The Mermaid’s Mercantile, in San Diego

June 26 & 27

I hope if you are in the area you will come by and join us!

  2. Did Miss Emily graduate from Canby High? That big 'C' with the Cougar and the blue and gold school colors look very familiar! I'm a cougar and it's hard to miss. Congratulations to her. Have a great trip - and have fun with Sheila.
