tilley's sale a success!

tilley's sale was a blast! thanks to an amazing group of women, janet, heather, carolyn, mary, and kristy, i spent the weekend laughing, selling my cards and learning about antiques! what fun! special thanks to my mom for her antiques to help my display look great and fit right in with the surroundings! these cards are in an old metal dish drainer!

i asked people to type me a comment and i have some for future posts! people were very excited to use it and kids really got a kick out of it!

an old pepsi box of my moms was perfect for the tag display! enjoy your day and remember to send a card to someone today!

Florence

This picture is my absolute favorite of my grandmothers. It was August 16, 1964 at the wedding of my parents. The fun thing is that both of my grandmothers were named Florence and their birthdays both in March.

Today is my grandma's birthday (the one on the left) and her typewriter is what I use for my cards. She loved getting mail and we have recently gone through her 'saved' letters and there were so many that she kept from every special event in her life. I think she knew her mailman's name and life story and loved to be remembered via mail.

I miss her every day and hope that she knows we would be writing letters to her still.

Remember your grandmother today or anyone else that has been an important force in your life.
