Step Back In Time to an Old General Store Filled with Antiques!

The day after our big carnival
party, my Mom and I decided
to spend the afternoon 
at an old time village.
 
This one had an awesome
general store filled with antiques.

 
There was something everywhere
we looked. From fabric to biscuit
boxes to old dishware to
fancy ladies accessories.


 
I couldn't stop taking pictures.
To find these things now, ah!
This little historic village
had quite the collection.

 
Just look at this antique
dress form, spool cabinet
and ribbon display.
Not to mention the
neat hat holders with hats!
 
 
And this sweet gentleman
had seen us peeking in the windows
and asked us if we wanted to go
inside to have a better look.
 
SO glad he did!
What a treat it was!
 
A small act of kindness
became one of our
 blessings to count that day.
 
Our other blessing was to
see them setting up for a
country themed wedding.
 
Then we came upon a creatively
made directional sign:
"This way to the
I DO's and the Kiss!"
 
Made out of yard sticks
and rulers...
 
The reception to be held
in this yellow barn.
 
What fun it was to step
back in time...a great
way to kick off Fall!
