Market Street Saturday





I've always loved downtown Columbus. My hometown has some of the most beautiful antebellum homes in the country, and one of the most charming southern historic districts around.

Market Street is the "must do" yearly event in downtown Columbus. The weather is usually almost perfect, and folks in this region are pretty awesome crafters. For years Daisymaes had a booth. It's the place to catch up and have lots of familiar, sweet smiling folks hug your neck.

Arleigh O and I planned a much needed girls day with Nano for a little shopping. The one thing about going with Nano, I can gurantee you are going to hear 900 "Hey, Mrs. Sansing" from every kid she's every taught. 

AO loved riding in her stroller and didn't make a peep.
We had chicken salad fruit plates at an adorable little restaurant called the Gourmet Garage, behind Beard's Antiques. (This is where AO became a huge new fan of dehydrated green beans and okra.)

I bought this fabulous stained glass piece for $35. It takes up my entire kitchen window!


AO got her first balloon.... 
She went on her first carriage ride through the tree lined streets of the historic district. And took a nap....





















We met sweet Swayze for Tutti Fruiti yogurt

And AO absolutely collapsed from her busy day. How was your weekend?
