CANTON!!

This weekend Paula and Mary came to Fort Worth for a girls weekend and a trip to CANTON! Holy Cow... I thought I knew what to expect... but I did not! Canton is CRAZY!! I walked around the whole day saying "OMG - this is CRAZY!" There were tons of cute things there and rows and rows and rows of shopping! It makes me wish I had a house to decorate... someday!

When we first arrived we thought we were sooo smart... pulling into the first parking lot we found with a HUGE sign that said 1st Monday Parking. We got a spot up front and got to the wagon rental place just in time cause they only had 2 left. We ended up deciding we didn't need a wagon and good thing we did because we were apparently in the ghetto Canton. We started walking around and I kept thinking "is this really what we drove 1 1/2 to see?"





Luckily Mary found some ladies who looked like they were Canton Pros and they directed us a couple of blocks down to the "Real Canton" Thank goodness!!! It was obvious when we got out of our car that we had finally found it!!! CANTON!!!

Literally ROWS AND ROWS of metal crosses, candles, home decor, baby stuff, sunglasses, cute purses, antiques and TONS more! Its like Fredericksburg on crack... seriously!

I bought a few gifts that I cant post pictures of yet but will soon cause they are too cute not to share! I also bought a cute little basket to take pictures of babies in and the coolest candle holder made out of an old wine barrel.





The candle holder is from a store called Vintage at Heart and you can view some of their products online... I think I will be buying quite a few Christmas gifts from here - so cute!!!

Not only did they have great home decor but they also had yummy fair type food... CORN DOGS, YES PLEASE! Here are Paula and Mary enjoying their corn dog (sorry if you dont like this pic girls, its the only one I took)



It was so fun to spend the weekend with my girls!! And lucky them they get to see me again next weekend in San Antonio for Chi Chi Weekend 2009 with Susan too!!! We are going to spend the weekend laying out, getting pedis, eating yummy mexican food and enjoying girl time at the Westin on the Riverwalk - I can not wait to spend the weekend with my girls again!!!

Happy First Week of JUNE!!!!
