Texas Time

Returned Wednesday
from a wonderful
extra-long weekend
trip.....

My mom's gift
to me ~
Each year we
meet somewhere
fun
and indulge
our whims
for a few 
precious days
together.


The Craig's Place Inn
This year, we
headed south....
South-WEST,
that is ~
San Antonio, Texas
was our base
for two day trips....

The first, to the
north-east, the little
town of New Braunfels,
where we 
meandered
through some great
antique malls.








I bought a pair
of well-loved
cowboy boots ~
**$16.50!!**
With some amour
from Bob the Shoe
Man, they will be
perfection!!

I also bought some
turquoise Fiesta Ware
for the collection
of this sweet blogging
 girl, who we had the
pleasure of whiling
away the afternoon
with over lunch.



Elizabeth was a breath
of fresh air ~ one
of my younger blog
simpaticos who I 
just love.  Beautiful
inside and out....
full of hopes and 
dreams for her future....
She was exactly as
I'd imagined her.
If only one could adopt
 a younger sister ~
she'd be mine : )


{Sending you hugs,
Biz!!}




Our other adventure
took us due-north
to that hallowed Texas
Hill Country town that
we'd read so much about...

{Cue harps here}:

Fredericksburg!




Not only home to the
cutest little houses and
shops, but one of my most-
admired bloggers, as well.



She just passed her
2000th {!!!} follower mark,
but Anne, aka Fiona & Twig, has 
her lovely cowboy boots 
firmly planted on the 
warm Texas soil : )





With a heart as big
as the Lone Star State,
Annie was our gracious
guide for the whole
afternoon and into the
evening, sharing her
favorite shops, her soon-
to-be {gorgeous} church
and giving us a tour of 
her new ranch....
So much charm
that it will have its
own dedicated post, soon!


She even treated us to
lunch and an excursion
to that wild west outpost,
Lukenbach, Texas!
{Thank you, girlie; you
are the best!}


I made her stand a step above me : )
As always when we are
together, my mom and
I enjoyed lengthy talks,
punctuated by
laughs
long walks
hugs
shopping
movies
and 'lots of good
Southern iced tea!


Time.  Texas style.


Thanks, Mom!
I miss you, already.
Left 88 degrees, sunshine
and some of my heart ~
Landed in 38 degrees
and melting traces of snow.
Eek!

But a warm welcome
awaited me from my
little family at home.

I feel so blessed.

This Luckenbach kitty has it down pat!
I hope that Y'all
can carve a little
Texas Time for
yourselves over the
weekend.....
I highly recommend it!

Don't forget to
enter my blogiversary
giveaway, here.

Sending you all
heaps of Easter love,


xx
Suzanne
