It's that time of the Year: Annual trek to Brimfield

Today I thought I would share a few fun pictures from my annual trip to Brimfield this week. This year I took my son as all my other friends had scheduling conflicts and my husband couldn't take the day off of work. Since my son is 13 and it seems like all we do is fight and argue I thought it would be a great to spend the day together doing something we both love.

I'm happy that I asked him to come along, we had a great day and he went along with all my silliness, like the picture below, ha ha. Of course, I did lay down the law first thing! If you're coming here with me you HAVE to play along with the silly pictures.

A little fake smile, but that's ok.

Every year I take a picture of these funky latex glove forms, they are always waving!

I was so in love with these little rusted wire faces -- but I wanted them individually. I might have to make a few and put them on stakes...they really made me happy!

This foot was huge - my size 9 foot was the size of it's pinky toe, lol.

I thought this mask was kinda cool. He didn't.

That's it for pictures. IT was the perfect day as far as weather, company and driving. I'm hoping to go back again this summer with my sweet friend that couldn't come this time. Crossing my fingers! 

THANKS for stopping by -- have a GREAT day.

  2. Glad you had an enjoyable day. Cherish the memory and on the days that your son is being a typical teenager just remember he will be grown up before you know it. One morning you will wake up and he will be graduating from high school. In the meantime I think you can relate to this poem I wrote when my son was that age.

    "He looks at me with shuttered eyes.
    When I tell him I feel he needs to apologize.
    He looks at me and says "why?"
    All the time, looking with shuttered eyes.
    I wonder, what he hides behind shuttered eyes.
    Is he hiding a rebel spirit, which lives deep inside?
    Or is he hiding a frightened child; he tries so hard to disguise.
    All the time, looking with shuttered eyes."

    Thanks for sharing your wonderful pictures. LOL! Those baby parts in a jar gives me an idea for Halloween.

    Have a wonderful weekend!
