Great day with my Sister!







Today my Sister (with a capital S) and I spent the day together. She was great, letting me browse in vintage and antique shops in Holland as well as art galleries. I found this great vintage shelf which will live at the lake house. Then we walked down the street to my favorite gallery~Thistle Gallery. New zipper pins had arrived! I bought my Sister a bird pin for taking care of our cats while we will be away this month. Then I bought myself a gift (the cherry pin~thanks, honey!) and I was shopping for a friend and bought her a pin as well (the bluebird). Then we were directed to see the fabulous pins in the window of the gallery...and I lusted after another zipper pin. My Sister decided that would be a terrific gift for my birthday (in March). Yippee! I just adore those pins! Of course then I felt I should buy her some special earrings for her birthday (in March). I just love shopping for my own gifts as well as gifts for others!
To top off the afternoon, we had a terrific lunch at Boatwerks on Lake Macatawa. What a wonderful day!
PS Owls were abundant everywhere! I took this picture just for you, Kim. Aren't they adorable?!

  1. I haven't shopped in Holland in ages. You need to give me a list of all your favorite haunts. I need some shopping fun. Those owls are adorable. I just got done updating the blog with pictures from our Chinese New Year celebration. Josie was so proud of her special clothes and special holiday today.
