During my brief visit to NC, I spent an afternoon with my grandparents. They have a fairly large storage shed in their backyard, stuffed with decor, furniture, and linens. My grandparents graciously allowed me to rummage through the items, and I uncovered handful of treasures for my new home with Josh!
I loved this vintage apron!
This blanket is handmade!
After sorting through the shed, we sat in the living room and enjoyed my grandfather's homemade, blueberry currant pie, topped with sour cream. It was an afternoon well-spent!
Blogger still refuses to upload my photos, but I eventually had success with Photobucket. Here is the post which is long overdue!
As you may remember, I went home to North Carolina for eight days. In the midst of the doctor's appointments, wedding planning, and church events, my family celebrated a birthday! My sister, Grace, was born on St. Patrick's Day, and this year, she turned nineteen.
Ain't she purdy? Grace has always enjoyed wearing green accessories on her birthday, and each year, she never fails to request a mocha chocolate chip cheesecake. Some things are too perfect to change.
Though my sister and I fought during the growing-up years, we have now become close friends. We enjoy shopping, giggling, eating cookies, being silly, and watching nerdy TV shows. And here's a fun fact: her bestest, best friend is the younger sister of Josh, my fiance!
I miss you, Grace!
