We had boxes in the garage that had been there for over 5 years! There were things I knew I had and wanted to find...and then there were things I had forgotten about...
My wedding flowers. I knew they were out there, pleasantly surprised that they looked like new!
This is a little frying pan that I had painted and added a sunflower decal, it is the smallest of a set of three. The other two were here when we bought the house - this one was given to me by my mom.
When she was a little girl her grandma used this little pan to fry her an egg for breakfast!
My Barbie doll!!!! This was also one of the items that I knew was here....somewhere.
I must say this little chic looks pretty good for her age!!
With her was her little sister Skipper and friend Midge -
Unfortunately they have very few outfits ...
and only 4 shoes...not even one pair
how bazaar!!
I found a box of plates....
these I had forgotten about - they had been packed away 16 years ago
and then moved from one place to another
the pink and blue edged plates were always hanging on mom's kitchen wall
when I was a little girl...
the flowered plates belonged to my grandma... my mom's mom
they are cracked and chipped and discolored,
but to me they are BEAUTIFUL!
and another surprise....
This little blanket was made by mom for little Ronnie Dean
when he was just a little guy
(about 38 years ago)
the print is of all the different fairy tales..
I really was surprised to see it after all these years!
So it has been somewhat like Christmas for me lately....
...finding all these treasures.
