Final guest post: The honeymoon from Sans

Sans sent this inspirational photo. Oh I can smell the flowers and taste the cake. "All you need is LOVE, everybody" now where have I heard that before...

After the wedding? The honeymoon! Enjoy this inspiration from her recent trip to Bali, and check out these pictures and more from her blog.

And where is my ElderAssistant and her husband headed??? The Bahamas of course...

Thank you Sans for this loveliness! MOB,now MIL (Mother in Law), too! Cheers C

On to Pennyslvania

So we continue on to the Antiqueing part of the trip. We drive to Pennsylvania and go to work.

And what happens? We are in a shop in Shrewsbury and the depression glass plates start rattling and the floor rolls. I ask, "is that an earthquake?" and the shop owner says "No that's just a truck going by".

Well, I am not from California for nothing... It was a rare earthquake on the Eastern Seaboard. The store owners went and stood in the door frames in case of after shocks. Everyone's cell phones went off with the big news. 

We were like, "Excuse me... how much is this..." but the owners were busy comparing damages. There were none. Anywhere. Just some cans on the floor of some grocery stores in Virginia.

Oh and did I tell you I hate to fly, lost my xanax and a hurricane is headed this way... The good news? It poured rain the weekend before the wedding, and New Jersey is having a hurricane warning this coming weekend, so I guess my Elder Assistant lucked out with the perfect weather for her wedding in between! Oh, and I now own 19 dollhouses... going through security with it was fun, it has old wiring. Cheers C

Guest post from Rebecca's Collections

 Well love must be in the air! These Erna Meyer dolls are getting married too!

               How sweet are they? Is this a 1950's bride and groom?

              The Groom in this one looks like Mr. Darcy to me!
              For more go to:

                     Cheers for Australia!  Thank you Rebecca,
                                  it will truly be a G'day for us! C

Update: OK so every wedding has it's own stories... My Elder Assistant informed me the Groom got a black eye! How?  This weekend, being a nice family kind of guy he went to his sister's high school daughter's graduation party. He went down a waterslide and the foot of a little boy kicked him in the face. Presto a swollen eye. Everyone assures me it will be gone by the wedding but maybe HE will have to wear the veil! Honestly! Tell your children to elope! The good thing is his whole family was there to witness it so they won't think he is being coerced into marriage... MOB (mother of the Bride)

Thank you Mini Modern for guest blogging for me this week as I am off to my Elder Assistant's wedding. I wish you all could come, but at least we can celebrate this happy event in blogland.

We love this festive setting! The bride wishes her real reception was this palate and the Little Assistant is ready to eat the cakes!

Look at the glass marbles! How clever!
