It started with a trip out to the antique barns. They happened to be closed but all was not lost. We saw these old abandoned houses on the way so we stopped to take a peak. They were old juvenile correctional houses from the 20's. The houses were so beautiful in all their decay and probably hold stories we couldn't even imagine. It was a dark beauty juxtaposed with such a great fall day. The guys went in to explore while cutie and I stayed outside on our own adventure. There were old pianos and furniture just left to rot inside. Windows were busted out with lace curtains flowing in the wind. We want to go back out and explore some more.
Our small Thanksgiving Feast was a welcomed treat with all we have going on right now. Don't get me wrong we do love the house filled with people and tons of noise on most Holidays so this was a different experience to actually fit everyone at one table. The highlight of the feast was the cheese stuffed pumpkin. The link to the recipe is here : Cheese stuffed pumpkin recipe. I have dreamed about this since last Thursday! The company was great and the food delicious.
We went uptown to the Thanksgiving Parade. We love the parades Charlotte holds. It is a really fun experience. It was the perfect day and a perfect way to get the festivities started.
We found this years perfect Christmas tree. The smell and lights have set the mood in the house. I can't believe it is almost here.
And the big project I am in the middle of now. The clean slate before we started the new installation. We are getting ready for the big reception this Friday night. I will post the after pictures later tonight. It is the biggest show I have curated with so many different artists and mediums. It truly is a Handmade Holiday! You can do all your shopping in one spot. The reception should be a great time this Friday.
