Teacup Thursday: 29 Years Anniversary Teacup

-
This past weekend, my honey and I got away for a two day reprieve from work, kiddos and farm life! We went to Kansas City to celebrate our 29 years of marriage! We had a splendid time staying downtown near the plaza. On Saturday evening, we ventured out to Fogo de Chao restaurant, which is a Brazilian Steak House - beware, it was a bit pricey...but it was our anniversary, right?! The food was very fresh and delicious and Don said it was presented and tasted pretty close to the food experiences he had had while visiting Brazil last year.



On our little trip, we stopped at one of my favorite antique shops - The Enchanted Frog -- there we found some wonderful finds, one of them was this lovely tea cup. I probably would have passed it up, because of the price, but Don said we had to have it! I was thrilled!!

This pretty is a Coalport - Made in England, entitled "Broadway-Green" I am so excited to be it's new owner and when I sip tea out of it, will cherish the memory of 29 years of marriage...Isn't it wonderful when you still "like" the one your married too?!

We had a fabulous two days together...and hope we will have many more years together.

    I have a huge teacup collection but that has to be the prettiest teacup and saucer I have ever seen! Drooling here... very unladylike. :)

    I love the teacup and what a special way to remember your 29th. I found a teacup on our travels last week and passed it up, now I regret it. Maybe next time I am in that shop it will still be there.

"We wish you a Merry Christmas, we wish you a Merry Christmas, we wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!" Mom was the first to get this set of “Cup of Christmas Tea” teacup and teapot. She received them many years ago by a friend in California, Dayna Esquivel. When we moved out here to the country, Mom and I began enjoying tea together in the afternoons. That Christmas Mom found another set of “Christmas Tea” teacups and teapot and purchased them for me! We always get these teacups out at Christmas and sip tea out of them on a regular basis. They hold many found memories of teatime with my mom! May you have a blessed Christmas!! Other's Who Are Participating in Teacup Thursday! The Hope Chest Rose Chintz Cottage Antiques and Teacups
