Grandma Leyba loves to give things away. She is always collecting items that she thinks may be useful to others. We came home with several 'treasures', here are my 2 favorites, first, a collection of vintage buttons for my crafting. There are some really neat old buttons here. We stumbled on them by accident when I needed a button for my shirt and Grandma said she didn't know if I'd be interested but I could take them with me because she had too many. She was thrilled when I told her I'd love to have them!
The next treasure we ended up with was a Kitchenaid mixer! I have wanted one of these for years but could never justify spending money on one. It needed some tweaking but thanks to my handy husband it now works great! I think Bronze was almost as excited as I was to get this because he remembers being in the kitchen when he was little and his grandma would have this mixer going, whipping up one of her famous dishes. Thanks for all the treasures grandma, we had a wonderful time visiting you, you always make our visits so special!
Hopefully I will get some more pictures of our trip transferred so I can blog them, we had lots of fun and made fun memories!
