Greetings my sweet & wonderful friends! Hope everyone is enjoying the Fall season, and have had a chance to participate in fall festivals, visiting the pumpkin patch, and picking out your Halloween costumes. Those of my blogging gal friends who live "down under" in Australia I hope you are enjoying your spring/summer time. 🙂
The Hayslip family has had a busy family filled weekend. We surprised my son with tickets to "A day out with Thomas the Train". My 2 year old is a HUGE fan & collector of Thomas trains. So when we found out he was touring in our area we knew we must take Grant for his first Thomas the train ride.
Here is Grant and my step-son Jordan posing in front of a sign.
Grant enjoyed playing with all the activities.
He LOVES stamping like his MAMA!!!! 🙂
Grant ran into his very best friend Conner from school. Happy little buds!
Here he is posing in front of Thomas. Of course he’s not looking at the camera for me. That would be asking to much huh??? LOL!!!
Grant and Daddy.
Grant is in La~La land, and Vivi is checking out the scenery!
Childrens first train ride, and Vivi is ready to go home now. 🙂
Now on to the GOOD STUFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My most recent yummy find was this darling little girl planter. Guess what? I only paid $6 for her. Whoo-hoo! We love a good deal!
This next fabulous find is OVER-THE-TOP wonderful! These are small vintage cupcake toppers. They are of ALL sorts of figurines. Ballerinas,clowns, Santa and his sleigh (used in my bunny box), little Victorian girls & boys,indians,southern belles, and tons more!
This last picture is a "sneak peek" of my Silver Bella ornament swap. This is the backside of the ornament. The other side is a sweet & whimsy Christmas scene. More pics comming soon! 🙂 XOXO, Jenn
Oh Jenn how sweet! I love the Thomas stuff, Leroy would have loved it too! Your kids are so adorable!
Spring is coming into Summer here, I got to wear a strappy dress and sandals yesterday (woohoo!).
wow how gorgeous are those cake toppers! And your sweet Silver Bella decoration…. can’t wait to see the other side!
That little girl planter is the cutest thing ever!!!!
You always have spectacular things!!!
What adorable photos of the children. And i love your planter and the little ornament you made. Those cupcake toppers are GREAT!!!
What a lovely post – your children are wonderful, and my daughter was watching as I was scrolling through the pictures, she wants to go and see Thomas as well LOL!!
And what delightful finds!! The little planter is just too gorgeous for words! Lucky you!
What a sweet family- and I love the picture of Grant and his friend arm in arm- in a few years I suppose they’ll be too “macho” to do that- but they are just darling now. Great pink eye candy too!
Grant and Vivi are just the SWEETEST and you’re darling, as usual, Miss Jenn! And such delicious new finds! And don’t even get me started on the SB sneakie peekie!!!! OMG…I’m so jealous of all you Bellas but I know you’ll have a GRAND time and come home and tell us all about it. With lots of pics, of course! 😉

You just truly are such a girlie girl! Your home is amazing! What a darling family you have! And I love your creations and I look forward to visiting you again soon! I love your retro girl, lady like, but with a dash of pin up girl, look!

Hi Jenn,
Wow, Grant must have been in heaven seeing Thomas!! I know my son would have been! He is nearly 8 and still LOVES Thomas and has a huge collection of wooden trains/tracks etc.
And I just LOVE that sweet little girl planter, it is beautiful! That is something that I would snap up too if I found it!!
All the best,
Kathy 🙂
What wonderful photos…
Sounds like you all had a wonderful time!
I have lots of those little pink dolls!
They were sold for girls like the green army men for boys!
They are called “100 Little Dolls” and you ordered them through the mail!
They cost $1.00 back then…
