Cold is on the Right, Hot is on The Left
So it's been a loong evening - and I think tomorrow is going to be even longer.
Calling hours were nice. They had a nice poster set up with pictures on it of the wedding cakes Grandma made. I didn't realize they were doing that, and my wedding cake 13 years ago was the last one, and the only fountain cake, grandma had done.
So I'm taking the pic up tomorrow to add to the poster. My Aunt said I'd get it back afterwards.
I'm also going to try to find some other pictures I have hanging around here - but I won't be able to get into the main pic storage, because the t.v. sits on top of the cedar chest and my million pictures are IN the cedar chest (which was a really dumb idea on my part!)
Since Aunt Hazel gave me the sweater from Grandma, I've also developed an unhealthy obsession with vintage baby clothes - and little smocked dresses. I have asked everyone I know if they know how to do the smocked dresses - and tonight Aunt Hazel told me to give her my address, because she DOES know how to do smocked dresses/vintage dresses and will send some up to me.
YAY!!
AND this morning, Mom told me that Aunt Hazel had given her a box of Grandma's things - and there's several baby girl dresses in there that my Grandma had made years ago!!! Tonight Aunt Hazel told me she had already gone through them, and pulled out the ones that weren't good anymore. I guess clothes sometimes don't age well?
Anyway, so Aunt Hazel and I were talking about how cute it will be to take some of Grandma's homemade baby girl dresses and use them as decor for Baby Girls room. I think we're going to maybe see if we can frame one and hang it on the wall, too.
I don't know when I'll get the chance to go through the box, because it's at my mom's house and well...stuff doesn't always survive my mom's house.
