My Kids Went to Malibu, But I Didn’t Get No Stinkin’ T-Shirt!


Not long ago, my daughter and her sweet hubby took a little vacation to California.


They had a great time, but that’s not important.


What is important is that I trained her well. Giving her values and all that.


THEY STOPPED AT A GARAGE SALE IN MALIBU.


Where they picked up this little gem of a lantern that had actually been hanging on the outside of the house.


Sweet!


They wanted to thank hubby and me for keeping their kids, our babygrands, while they were vacationing.


Lanterns are all the rage, aren’t they? Love those at Restoration Hardware!


But I love this one and the story behind it.


The house where it used to hang is next door to Tom Selleck.


I don’t need no stinkin’ t-shirt.




Is it too late for White Wednesday? Check out Kathleen's Faded Charm!

What a good girl! You must be so proud! Hey do you think Tom might have touched the light fixture? ;-)

I've been snooping around your blog and I loved it, so I made it all legal and became a follower.

Thanks for stoping by Elizabeth Ann's, hope you'll come back soon.

Joyfully,
Elizabeth
