off to williamsburg
2009 November 6
We are all packed to go, excited, and dreaming of our adventure to Williamsburg, Virginia. We are leaving bright and early Friday morning and will be back Monday or Tuesday. Fauna found a cozy perch on the luggage to read a good book.
The large piles of books to be read in the car are going to weigh the car down; but will hopefully keep the bickering to a minimum!
Bringing a lot of gremlins and critters that need hand-stitching; great way to pass the 10 hours in the car. I’m working on a new owl pattern, I’ll share if it turns out!
I won’t be posting for the next few days; the family wants me blog free for the trip. Have a safe and healthy weekend!
what an amazing picture of your daughter!!!!!!!!
i love williamsburg too – hope you enjoyed your stay!
Have a great time! I have fond memories of Williamsburg.. especially the caramel apples! : )
Your photos are amazing! I finished up a Gremlin this weekend…the kids love it (no matter how seriously hand made it looks)
Just found your blog and am so happy I did!! I am one of those “I can’t make anything mums” but lately have been getting this real tug in the direction of knitting or crocheting…..We are about to take off and roam for a while around the globe and so knitting and creating could be a valuable tool during all those long plane trips and airport waits.
Thanks for the inspiration and enjoy your journey
Such a gorgeous picture of Fauna! Hope everyone enjoys the trip. The stack of books reminds me of family vacations when I was young– I’d bring a stack of Nancy Drew mysteries!
I love that photo of Fauna.
Have a great time in Williamsburg.
Have a wonderful trip! Can’t wait to hear how it was!
Have a great time. I love the black/white picture of Fauna!
This post suddenly reminded me of how excited I am about my children learning to read.
Have a fabulous trip!
Have a great time! We went to Williamsburg at Christmas time last year and loved it.
I love that photo……so timeless! Have a safe trip!
Have a great and safe trip! Your gremlins are tooooo cute! I’m going sweater shopping at Goodwill ASAP. You naughty influence, you, for making my craft blood flow.
You have given me the creative flu, Lisa. For shame.
I covet your vintage suitcase collection.
Have a fun and safe trip. I wish we had visited when we lived in Delaware, but someday when we return to the states, we’ll have to get there.
I can’t wait to see the pictures you will post!
Have a wonderful trip, enjoy family, and relax!
Lucky’s!!! Have a wonderful time
Have a great time! Can’t wait to hear about it! Goose and I have been looking at the Colonial Williamsburg website for our colonial america study. She just said the other day she wants to visit!
Looking forward to pictures!

That first picture is timeless. Please post lots of pics when you get home and can’t wait to hear more about a new pattern… : )
I love your beautiful old luggage and Fauna’s hat. Have fun reading and sewing!
Have a wonderful trip! Your little girl is so stunning perched on her pile of luggage there. Enjoy the blog free week, you will be missed!

Have fun mama!!
I adore Fauna’s hat in the picture. She could be a model for an American Girl Doll. And those Gremlins are adorable. So colorful — I want to scoop them all up!
Enjoy your weekend and your books!
your blog has beautiful photos!
it looks like you are all set for a lovely fall visit… that stack of books looks good to me! have fun!
Have a great time.
(love that pic of Fauna!)
Oh! We love Williamsburg–in fact, Michael & I spent out honeymoon there. We have not had the chance yet to take Benjamin. I know he’d enjoy it. Not to mention, I’d love to buy Michael a three-cornered hat!! He keeps saying he’d like to bring back the three-cornered hat (HA HA!!)
Have a safe & happy trip…
Eat at King Arm’s Tavern. Sip coffee at the Barnes & Noble. Buy a William & Mary t-shirt and dream of being a privileged college student. Oh…I’m so jealous…
Have a nice trip! I am jealous! Here in Rome, we are having a rainy week; not that I am displeased , I love rainy days; but it’s a lot of time we don’t take a nice trip!

Have a fabulous trip! Don’t forget to check out Jamestown as well. And wow look at all of those gremlins — for an etsy shop perchance?

Williamsburg is one of my favorite places. Have a wonderful visit. Beth
