Invasion of the Cows

27th Anniversary Cruise Celebration

Day 10 - When we made plans for our wedding we knew it would be in my hubby's beloved hometown. We wanted a small intimate wedding with a few friends so we married in my dh's home place. I loved their old Victorian home. Surrounded by poinsettias and great friends we were wed in his living room. I made my way down the winding staircase to the entry way and my step dad escorted me the rest of the way. My mil catered all the food and setup all the arrangements. Their wonderful neighbors allowed my family to use their home while they were away during that week. Our honeymoon was in the town where we now live. We stayed in the Williamsburg Inn and enjoyed all of Colonial Williamsburg. I loved bringing in the Yule Log and other festivities the Inn had planned during the Christmas season. It was an enchanting time - one filled with beauty and wonder. Love was in the air!

Invasion of the Cows

Have you seen the traveling cow exhibit? Here you can read a little history on where and how it all began. Cows invaded our mall last year. They were everywhere. Artists made and painted large cows and were exhibiting them in different malls. They weren't just plain ole' cows. They were all decorated and very colorful.



Everyone visiting this area was talking about the painted cows. Children couldn't resist climbing on them and many passersby stopped to have their picture taken with a cow. They made you laugh. Even my dog was fascinated by them. I believe he thought they were real.

My friend in Florida shared her cow story with me. So I am working on a floating cow quilt piece for her. Shhh!! Don't tell her. I hope she doesn't read my blog today.
