I finally got around to getting some pics of Miss Wilma's booth and the Burlington Antique show. It was such a gorgeous Sunday, but poor Wilma, I don't know how she does it. At one point, Janice and I came back to the booth and what did we see? A VERY cute scene with Miss Wilma and Violet Mae, sound asleep together in the back of the trailer  Had to take a pic!
Awake!!!
This is Miss Wilma's booth later in the afternoon. She makes the most wonderful things--pillows, and wood items. I sure wish I would have had a bit more money. That large, mustard colored wood shelf in the foreground really calls to me. Perhaps I need a bigger home...

Beautiful pictures, what a treat to see Miss wilma and Violet napping. The show looks like it was great fun. I have to avoid antique shows, thrift shops, etc. for a while so it is always a treat to see everyone's pictures. I love to look at Miss Wilma's blogs, so many lovely visions to think about.

I sure would love to go, I could spend a bit of money at that Miss Wilma Booth! Isn't that just the cutest picture of Miss Wilma and sweet baby having a nap. That would have been a good time for me to load up my trunk. HA.

Sure would, Nancy! It cracked me up. She really does burn all ends of the candle (if there were 10 ends to a candle!!!) She just pushes and pushes herself, and she can fall asleep standing up. The weather was just right for an afternoon nap in the outdoors!

Can you all believe Jonnie did that to me, thats alright I will just spoil little Violet more, That sure is an easy job to do, that is the talkingest little baby I ever saw, I am the only one that really understands her. Jonnie Little man weighed 18lbs 15 oz Mon. I think they are getting a hint, they started him on carrots last night he ate a half jar and took a fit because he didnt get to eat it all, and I know he loves to Pee on me because every time I change his diaper he lets fly, and then laughs real big. I got him out in his big red wagon and pulled him all over the orchard

It's true...Miss Wilma is the "Violet Whisperer"!
I'm so glad that they finally figured out that baby boy needs some FOOD! I'm not at all surprised that he wanted to eat up a storm--he's HUNGRY!!! Well, just not too many carrots and sweet potatoes...my cousin's twins ate so many "orange" baby foods that they kindof turned orange themselves!!!
I can't wait to hear more about the autumn gathering, and the Orchard Sale. I'm sooo looking forward the next few months!

Thanks, Sandra! Miss Wilma and Violet get along like wildfire...Violet was just "talkin'" up a storm to Wilma! Miss Wilma has the prettiest eyes, Sandra, and she's just as sweet and talented as you could ever imagine. I wish I had taken more pics to detail her items, but alas, I didn't. Next time! Maybe I'll take some at the Orchard sale and show them off then...which reminds me, I gotta save some $$$$$!
Violet really does have long legs, Sandra--that's no illusion. She is only 10 lbs. 4 oz, but she's 23.5 inches long! Built like her daddy, long and lean.

Thank you all you sweet girls, I really am not pretty I got to old, so I will just try to make up for it by being nice to little kids and almost all people, sometimes some just wont let you be nice. Not a whole lot gets my dander up,AT 64 years old I dont know of many people I cant get along with.Little Violet is so special, Now David Janices husband kinda trys to get more time in with her but I can stand up to him any old day.And I dont know what kind of sign I wear but it didnt take David long to start teasing and picking on me. So When we girls went junking last fall I found the perfect thing for his bossing me around. I found an antique horse muslle for him

I hope I look that good at 64..I have only 6 years to go....I love taking a nap with my grandson, he usually wakes up just when I'm falling asleep. He's sitting on my lap now, We are having a sleep-over party. Grampa went camping so we get the whole bed. Life is good!
Hope all your days are Sunnydays.

Miss Wilma - I love your new short haircut - hardly recognized you when I first saw it on your blog. And there has got to come a time when we meet. We are soul sisters. Love that photo of you and your little gal napping.

Yay David!!! I looooove that you're talking to us while traveling, eating pb & (Miss Wilma's) j! Poor Janice, though...she will feel disconnected, but I think will probably get more done. Who am I kidding? She's probably at all the auctions within 50 miles of home!

Well, if you are going to have a nap companion, I think Miss Wilma would be the best! I see lots of things in your photos that I would love to have at my house. :) Looks like a perfectly fun day.
