My gran to sing that nursery rhyme to me when I was a small child, and now Jack and I sing it together. I was ready to shout it by the time we got home yesterday. We are quite happy to be home, where Jack will actually eat and sleep and play. And where we all feel a little more relaxed in general. And now that I know that Jack really doesn't enjoy travelling, the next time Mama has an itch to wander, Jack can visit with Oma for a little while! (It really is amazing what kids will tell you once they are able to verbalize better.)

Rosemont on the other hand is what I consider a real flea market. A huge variety of everything with a huge variety of prices. There is real treasure hunting to be done on that parking lot, and every time we have gone there I have filled up my flea market cart to the brim and then some. Those tiny teeny Christmas trees came from there. I am not sure what they were? I think maybe dollhouse trees? They are only about 2 inches tall.



Speaking of overwhelming, I still have things to put away, laundry to do, and I haven't crafted in so long I feel twitchy, so I am off for now.
Great finds! Those little trees are darling. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm over the moon for those letters!!
ReplyDeleteGlad the trip went well. Can't wait to see your May tree!
Wow, awesome finds. I wish I could find stuff like that. I love the ribbon
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad the trip was successful. And a trip for Jack to Oma's and a trip alone to Chicago for Mama sounds just perfect! :)
ReplyDeleteCheers! LA
Love those goodies,and can't decide whether I like the little pig cloth or the tiny x-mas trees!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about being overwhelmed in fabric shops that have so much! I think it is your minds way of saying "righto, let's stop her from running up a huge credit card bill by not letting her make any decisions! Legs, get us outa here!" that happened to me in Melbourne once, on a business trip, 2 hours from leaving to fly home, I still managed to drag about 10kilos of fabric back to the hotel and overload my suitcase! when you get a minute, stop by my blog?
ReplyDeleteSorry we didn't connect. I was busy getting ready for a Cinco de Mayo dinner party on Saturday. (And it didn't help that it looked like rain in the morning). Glad you had a good trip. Maybe we can connect next time.
ReplyDeleteI love the ribbon! I always find that traveling makes me appreciate home an awful lot more...
