I think it's finally summer!

Christy was working at Leola's yesterday (she's one of our shopkeepers) & she brought in these wings. Since we seriously doubt she'll ever earn any of her own, we decided to take advantage of these & give her a chance to at least be photographed with wings once. Sorry but she does look a little like an angel wannabe.






Linda decided they might work better for her as a necklace. Aren't they so cute!!!!

Christy also brought in all these letters (cardboard w/little hooks on the back) & little flash cards that were apparently used years ago to teach business men how to speak properly (we thought maybe Andrew Carnegie). We're all crazy about anything with letters & numbers on them. Kelli has flash cards with french words on them. We're also crazy about anything french!
I'm beginning to hear fireworks in our neighborhood. It's time to decorate the porch in red, white, & blue. The 4th of July has always been a favorite holiday for our family & after the spring we've had, this one promises to be a particularly good one. I'm lucky to have Leola's to help me out because we are full of red, white, & blue. Maybe I'll even dig out my recipe for a flag cake. If I do, I'll promise to take pictures.

Hi Jan!

Had so much fun in your wonderful shop today! As usual, wasn't going to spend, but brought home some wonderful treasures. My friend Angela had a fabulous time, and is now a real fan of Leolas. Loved the family pictures!

p.s. Can I come to Florida with you and Judy someday? Sounds like a blast (if you know what I mean....)

Dulcy!
You are very cordially invited to come with us but that's Nantucket--not Florida. We have you a seat reserved on the bus. Jan
