For Real...

I can't believe it's really going to happen...but it is...FOR REAL!!!

We are actually taking a WHOLE WEEKEND OFF from Farmer's markets...For REAL!!(I know it doesn't seem possible, and sometimes I'm afraid it's a dream... :D)

But, it's FOR REAL!!!

Why???

Well my Mr. comes from a huge family...his Grandma had 13 kids...so he grew up with LOTS & LOTS of Aunts & Uncles, Cousins, and family dinners....and every year...during Cheif Joseph Days in Joseph, the family always gathers for a family get-together...

And...we've been naughty...bad...busy...whatever you want to call it...but, we haven't gone to the event for over 6 years :(

Why this year???

Well...one of those aunts...lives in Georgia...and she only comes once a year..and now she's in her 90's....and simply put...it's just TIME! My Mr. LOVES this aunt....(well he LOVES them all ..and the endless stories and bantering that goes on...) and, just as she has aged, so have we...and sometimes...you just need to STOP what you are doing, and simply enjoy the gifts you have in your life (I'm thinking this REALLY should be an everyday thing :D....)

Can I tell you....
I'm SO EXCITED!!!
I CAN HARDLY WAIT!!!

I Love my Mr.'s family...I LOVE Cheif Joseph Days....I LOVE small town life...I simply just LOVE family gatherings, the endless conversations (sometimes 20 at a time :D)....And...getting to spend a WHOLE WEEKEND away with my Mr. :D

Thanks for letting me share my market free weekend plans with you... :D

Praying this weekend is filled with ALL things Great and the BEST of everything...and many, many Sweet blessings for us...and you! Sweet blessings!
