A Sneaky Peek at Some Newly Acquired Family Treasures

Hey everyone!  I'm not ready to do a full-blown post about our family gathering on Monday evening or about the wonderful family treasures that were delivered to us by The Man's sister and bil; but I just had to share a sneak-peek of these family pieces that we now have guardianship of.  I can't wait for you to see how they have already become part of our home, but you will just have to wait a bit longer for that reveal.  I am also anxious to share some photos of the wonderful evening we had all together with our sweet family, getting acquainted and reacquainted with nieces, nephews, cousins and second cousins.  That post will be coming soon as well!

So, for now, I just had to share a glimpse of our new treasures.

I'm just ecstatic over these items and look forward to sharing "mucho" photos!

Hope you are having a wonderful week!

    I can't wait to hear the story of your china. I have that same set (though I don't have all the pieces you do). My set was a yard sale find; I wish I knew the history.
