Yesterday DH and I went to the Dicken's Festival in Holly MI. We try to go every year. They have some amazing antique shops and we like to spend the day together. First though I need to tell you that I finished the embroidered towels. So if you have not done so then go to the post before this one and enter for a chance to win them.
Here is a peek down the main street
We saw this Dicken's character making these amazing bubbles
Look at who else we found
There was even some ice sculpting
We found some cool antiques too. a GIGANTIC Fostoria punch bowl
A beautiful peacock figure and tapastry
Then I found my usual creepy elves.
And the best two things I found are the Holy water font and the musical angel
So all in all it was a great day spent with DH, getting a few gifts and having a great time! Today I have to finish cleaning and I am *hoping* to get some Christmas stuff put out. I need to order a few more gifts online too. If this isn't enough, my car is making a bad noise and DH thinks we may need to get a new car! I have no idea why, since this one only has 200,000 miles on it! I hope it is something easily fixed with not a lot of money. Anyway, have a great Sunday and don't forget to visit the giveaway post and leave a comment to be entered to win.

What a wonderful day it look like you had. One of my best friends from school lives in Holly.
Oh my gosh, you did that stitching so quickly! Is it machine or hand stitched?! It looks like your day was marvelous!! :)
