We are working on handwriting each and everyone of you a thank you note, but we wanted to show you how we are using some of our gifts from you. We used some of the money to buy two beautiful storage pieces. They come from a store near here called Material Culture. The sun and the moon on the wall are pieces that Claudio and Marga gave us as gifts from Puebla. They are talavera pottery. And the cowboy on the horse is from Tono and Bere. It holds a tequila bottle that looks like a bucking bull.
This lazy susan was a gift from Bob & Barb Crowley. It is handcarved and came from the same town where Bri and Carlos got their engagement ring.
As you've noticed, we like a lot of color. These are a few of the dishes and kitchen gadgets we ordered from Anthropologie. They are displayed in a cabinet that Bri trash picked from the side of the road, and then painted over the summer when we did our series of renovations on the house.
Guess we were in a blue mood when we ordered all these glasses and plates! We immensely enjoy all our new treasures. We wanted to get things that we would use, not fine china that we would store away and only pull out once every 5 years for a special holiday meal. Please help us use our new kitchen gear, and come visit for a meal or a cup of coffee. Thank you all so much for being a part of our lives. Again, those hand written cards are in production. Look for yours in the mail coming some day (hopefully) soon.
