~Thankful Thoughts

“ Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough.”
Oprah Winfrey

In the wake of hurricane Sandy I’m very thankful  that we were spared the brunt of this devastating storm. I’m so sorry for those who are now suffering with their loses. It makes me count my blessings and think about what I’m most thankful for.

I’m thankful for…

my family♥ …

I’m thankful for spending time with my family during the holidays. I love the togetherness, the abundant food, and the love that we share over our holiday meals.

Begin and end each day with an expression of gratitude .
Being together is the best gift of all.

Please think of the hurricane victims in this month of Thanksgiving . You can make your gift of a  donation to the

American Red Cross

"Blessed are those who can give without remembering and take without forgetting."

~ Fall in New England!

 

Fall is exciting! It's apples and cider. It's an airborne spider. It's pumpkins in bins. It's burrs on dog's chins. It's wind blowing leaves. It's chilly red knees. It's nuts on the ground. It's a crisp dry sound. It's green leaves turning, and the smell of them burning. It's clouds in the sky. That's why... I love fall.

~The Walker Homestead 2012 Fall Show

 Once again Paul & Kris Casucci opened up their home and hosted an amazing show! They had a record breaking amount of folksy friends coming to the ole homestead in search of antiques & primitives, from the finest vendors in the Northeast!

I would also like to thank all of the friendly folks who stopped by

Primitives by Maria’s

booth to say “ hello” to Maria & I.

We met some really nice folks!

It was great to finally meet Kath from

 The Old Weeping Cedar

in person! She takes the most beautiful photos.  Colleen was able to make the trip down from Maine to meet Kath as well, tears were flowing everywhere. ♥

The following photographs are my favorite captures from the show.

Enjoy!
