Luckett's with Miss Mustard Seed

I met 

~THEE~

Miss Mustard Seed

i have been out 

~stalking~

as my daughter calls it

at the big antique fair in 

lucketts, virginia

~marian~

 was so sweet and adorable and very

~tolerable~

 of my crazy fan like behavior

i 

had 

to go in to the store

to see her 

~space~

the one that i drool over with

every post she does...

that would be me accosting the poor girl

as she was trying to get something to eat

and there i spotted the cutest piece of ironstone

it is my first real piece but more importantly 

~was in her home~

awhhhh

ok, i know....

 watch it or she will be getting a restraining order out on me

we got there sunday around noonish

and

missy mustard seed 

was almost plum out of 

~everything~

i got a few shots of her booth but the cupboards were pretty bare by then

she has impeccable taste

&

has a line of 

milk paint

coming soon

as well as a book...

mama mustard seed

was so darn cute...

and we were so interested in her stories of how

her daughter got her start..

she is such a very proud 

~mama~

the fair was 

fantastic and we enjoyed the day so much

i heard there were 170 vendors

rows and rows of them

some of these booths were so pretty

and sold really useful stuff

on this very warm day

we all needed fanning..

and isn't this hilarious?

ok i bet i could do some

~blackmailing~ 

notice the guy pushing the stroller... looking at girlie stuff

and he's got a hunting cap on

what a good husband

i am so keeping this in mind

for the wine cellar room

if i didn't have to fly home

i would have brought

this adorable frog with me

the birdhouse reminded me of brother bill

and that frog with his hand on his heart

almost made me burst into tears

my girls

such beautiful weather

and great company

made this one of the best days 

~ever~

i'm pretty sure i can call her one of my

bff's

now

tee hee!!!

next year i would love to organize a 

lucketts party so i can meet more of 

east coast blogger friends and we can all stalk together

but by then who knows... 

miss mustard seed 

might have her own tv show

bless her heart 

this girl is going big places

you have to check out her blog

Miss Mustard Seed.com

hey so sorry about being

silent for the last couple of months

i've missed blogging but 

i was not in the sharing mode about much..

after loosing brother bill 

it just... 

~knocked the wind out of our sails~

the baby grands are a reminder

that life is a big circle and goes on

and we must too....

i will be here visiting them for another week

and hope to get lots of pictures of them 

&

of the projects i am helping annie with...

can we say 

milk paint!
