Finds in Frederick

it was rather refreshing to be out in Frederick for a change. this morning after getting up, we got a chance to walk around Market Street and enjoyed the beautiful weather. we stopped at a place called Bagel Creations (i think!...they also make an awesome pizza with pretzel dough...we were lucky enough to have it the night before) and had a delicious breakfast sandwich made with a freshly baked bagel. i LOVE bagels!

realizing that none of the stores opened till 12, we walked around and saw some interesting things. i guess as a part of the May festival they had yesterday, the sidewalks were decorated with shop logos and other arts.

the most interesting ones were in front of Classic Electric

this was too funny to pass up. someone just stuck these googly eyes on a window in front of this poster.

when the stores finally opened, i felt like a kid at a candy store. "oo, lets go into that store!" we went into Retro Metro where i found these monster jar made by a local artist...

and bought this cute little salt and pepper shaker.

i ended up really liking this store and i can't wait to go back! i can't believe how much Frederick has grown. walking around town and seeing dogs everywhere made us miss Remy, so we headed home to see Kristen and Victor.

they took such good care of Remy! they all went hiking and Kristen even bought her a cute new collar! she's all tuckered out now and has been sleeping since we've been home. thanks guys!

now that we're home, it's back to cleaning and doing laundry...not my favorite things to do in the world but it needed to be done. tomorrow i'll show you the pile of fabrics i got today to start on a new batch of birds. i was going to finish sketching and maybe even get started on them tonight, but we overslept while napping. i hope everyone's had a great day. i know i did! see you tomorrow!
