Little Traditions

We have a favorite family spot to have breakfast, and each time we eat there it has become tradition to pop over to one of our favorite shops, Funtiques, and browse around.  It isn't rare for Poe to take a nap on Johnny's shoulder... no matter where we are.  She often sleeps through lunches and outings, just snoozing away in his arms.  It's pretty sweet.

On this particular day, I did end up snagging that swan.  It reminded me too much of a collection my grandma used to have in one of her windows.  :)

    Awww that really is a fun tradition! What a great-looking store! I'm always so jealous of people who have great thrift shops nearby. But then, the fun is in the hunt, eh?

    I buy most things based on whether they remind me of my grandma. Excellent choice! :)

    Great hat, great swan and that store is amazing I spotted a heap of stuff I wanted to buy. The Midwest is just a little too far away from Paris though. Maybe on my US road trip next year, I feel a shops to visit list comig on.

    Take Care
