I also spent lots of quality time with nephew dog Jack

And we cannot forget the Princess Shiloh, my parents' dog (AKA my adopted half-sister)

If you are a regular reader of my blog, you know my mom, SIL, and me always go on mini-shop hops around the area (not that we need more fabric but we like to help out the Michigan economy). I didn't do anything to help the MI economy this time though! We went to Mabelena's and I didn't buy a thing. How terrible! (I'm very happy they have a website, twitter, & facebook pages now so y'all can visit them too!)
We also took a day trip to Bay City and went to some of the best antique stores I've been to in a long long time. Everyone else bought stuff; I didn't buy anything. We even found this super fantastic historic building with a quilt store

I LOVE this building! It even has its original display windows. Gorgeous! You can visit Fabric Fair online too. I didn't buy anything here either... I feel like such a bad quilter...
I did find a great linen tablecloth at a yard sale for $3 though. Does that count?

It sounds like you had a fun time! I'm surprised that you didn't buy anything at the quilt stores!
What a nice family you have. I especially like your adopted half-sister. And the building! It is wonderful! I guess it's good to abstain from shopping occasionally sigh.
From what I read, you had a lovely time. Who is that sweet little girl? Already so active at four months. Oh dear, what will it be once she starts crawling.
Gretchen, Ms. Mackenzie is growing so fast and isn't she so pretty? I mean really! She's really pretty... already. I'm happy to see Jack, too. What a good buddy.
waaaay cool building ... and gor-gee-ous baby girl - makes me want to smooch those little cheeks!
by the way - Hallographix is out there now - and you GOTTA go buy some (cuz you megged me months ago)
What a fun time you must have had! The pics are great!
