Round Top Report

Round Top time again...where twice a year the heavens open up and God showers love on women by giving them precious friends, giant cups of a tea-lemonade combo, gorgeous weather and tents and tents of beautifully loved-on items from a time gone by. It is my favorite place on earth and this fall show did not disappoint!

Here's some pics:

Erica & me...with said delicious Arnold Palmer...the first of two.

The gals...Sarah, Brandi, Erica & her lil' sis Alex

Test driving a set of patio chairs I had my eye on. Yup...feels just about right!

Sarah, Becca & Baby Stella

The last girls standing...Sarah and I finished up at Warrenton around 6pm. Fun, Fun, Fun!

Here's what came home with me:

The patio chairs and little white table, which I originally purchased to go inside, but I think it's just perfect out here.

I went this season looking for a little table to go beside this chair so that those having a sit had somewhere to set their drink. First, I found the white metal one, but later in the day, I found this little wooden table. So, I grab this guy up for $25, decided the metal one could go outside. I think I'm gonna paint it. What do you think? Red? Or maybe a lighter version of the blanket color?

Finally, just a wire basket for blankets. (I am ALWAYS freezing in our apartment!) I think I'm gonna sew a linen or burlap cover to fit the inside.

And there's that. :)

I love the little wooden table. I think it would look great in that blue color!!

You may have to teach me the roundtop ways...

P.S. The picture of you test-driving your new chair is very profile pic worthy for facebook. Just saying... ;]

Great pics, glad you came home with treasures. Paint the table in the same colour family as the blanket.
