Shabulous

One of the things I've been looking forward to since we have all this room out here on the property is hosting a show.  I love to go to other people's shows so why not have one here.  Sandra and I pulled one off this past Saturday.  It was a lot of fun and a huge success for the first time out.

A vendor already here with a load thursday morning.  We had two busy days of setting up and getting everything ready.  We had twelve vendors this year and hope to double that for the next one.

Vintage trailers on display.  This is something we hope to expand next year.  We may try to have a Sisters on the Fly campout and get a lot more cute trailers out here.  It is fun to look through them.  We had Morgan's, mine, Lexy's, Gareld's and our neighbor Connie brought her's down.

Morgan spent three days baking goodies for her booth.  BoBo Dean's did really well.  Customers were eating it up!  She makes delicious cheescake and a whole lot more.

Some friends of ours brought out their miniature horses and gave kids free rides.  They were a big hit!!

The pumpkins were a summer long adventure.  All went well until right before we were leaving for a week on vacation.  The deer started eating them and the magical deer repellent wasn't stopping them.  We picked them all and put them in a trailer until the show.  It was fun to grow them. 

We talked about getting a food vendor to be a part of the show but I had an idea one day that we could do soup and bread.  Here's the Soup Kitchen crew.  On a cool day who doesn't like soup?

My Shabby Shack.  I love it!  I liked the idea of it.  I had fun planning for it, then watching it being built and painting it.  Decorating it has been a joy.  Working with Gareld on the porch and pergola gave us some together time.  Filling it and setting it up for a show is on of my favorite things to do.

Shabulous was a great experience!  Can't wait to do it again.
