The Weed Patch

Yesterday we headed north from Seattle to Bothell to go to Country Village.  There's a darling store there, that I had been to before, called The Weed Patch.  Last week they posted a video on Facebook of all their decorations up for the holidays.   What better way to spend the day?  Right Mason?

I say "train em early", because I know there's going to be lots more shopping trips in his future. (notice the Leapster is still keeping him busy!)

Isn't this a cute shop?

There were decorations everywhere!

and more plates than I think I've seen in any shop.

I just love these old fashion Santas.

More plates.

Am I right?   :)

I think one of these guys should have come home with me.

Lots of snowmen.

and more plates.

This little reindeer was way cuter in person.   He looks like he's scowling at me here.  

Isn't this cabinet wonderful?   I loved it so much I couldn't even hold the camera steady!

They also have a huge variety of towels, both plain and decorated.

Did I mention plates?

And glitter for a real sparkle.  

 
The last time I went to this shop it was a bit more primitive than it is right now.    I thoroughly enjoyed my time there, but didn't come home with much more than a couple of ornaments for the kiddos and some towels to embellish.  Mason picked out a gingerbread man ornament for himself and a cupcake ornie for Emma.  

It was a fun outing and Mr CnW and Mason were terrific sports to hang out and wander around.   The weather was wonderful, so they got to enjoy walking outside which, I'm sure, was where they would have rather been.

I'm definitely getting in the holiday spirit and when we get home, I'll finish up my decorating and share some pics.

Hugs, Anne
