So yesterday we headed to town square and walked over to the old ice cream shoppe (i have to call it "shoppe" because it's old... right?). It was so cute and every detail was perfect. As was my Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream!
Lots of old fashioned candy!
Even the ceiling was beautiful!
Yes, that would be my major hitchhiker thumb.
After making a mess of myself with that ice cream, we walked across the street to ride the carousel in the park.
I had to take the ticket master's photo. I loved his red striped vest.
We had our pick of horses, because we were the only ones there! So we picked two we liked, and away we went. I loved the old bandstand music that played. It really made the whole scene perfect.
There may have even been a little trick riding.
Where's Waldo moment: can you spot me?
We then drove down the street and did a little thrift shopping. Sarah is
I love finally feeling like I have friends here, it really makes this whole experience a lot better. haha! Hope you had a lovely weekend!

RC. cola! Haven't seen that since we moved from Georgia. This trip looks so fun.
I would love to visit that shoppe! :) I was sold once I saw the old school bottles of RC cola and your mint icecream!!
Sounds like an awsome day. I really like the ticket-man's vest, too! :D

I love your town square! It is fantastic that you all have a cute old shoppe AND a carousel in your town!
It makes me think of Europe just a little bit!

G, I totally would have gone with you to all those spots! Who doesn't want to visit an ice cream shoppe or ride a carosel??!! Those things are fun no matter what age. Although my brother totally made fun of me for riding the carosel last summer at Canada's wonderland :P
So nice you get to meet other bloggers.
Wow, I'd so go to those cute places with you!! I love old fashioned things like that. And those pics on the carasol. Good job!! Very artsy :-)
I have a major hitch-hiker thumb, too!
This looks like a blast, Gentri!
That ice cream shoppe (yes, you should totally call it a "shoppe" because it's old... at least that's the cool way to do it) is adorable!
It's such a beautiful place, I'd love to go there ! There is a biscuit shop and a carousel that look like it in my town but I must confess they're not THAT beautiful !

So cute Gentri! I LOVE the vintage setup at the ice cream shoppe you took awesome pictures!
I love that you took a photo of the ticket master. He looked pretty happy about it too. Great post. Love your blog! :)

You guys are too cute! I love the carousel and that ice cream shoppe. It's definitely something I would love to go and see.

My KIDS AND I would LOVE to visit that shoppe! lol. So awesome! It looks like you had a lot of fun!
You guys should take up carousel trick riding as a real sport, I'm sure they would put you on ESPN or something. I mean, look at those tricks!
That candy store place looks like an ice cream shoppe where I used to live in Arcadia FL!
Looks like you had a lot of fun!
:)
I love love love that little soda shop!!! My cousins used to work there, the soups and breadsticks are to die for! :) Plus that carousel looks mega fun! :)
Oh Gentri...Gentri...Gentri.
It's hard to find friends here!? GIRL! Judd's is my ALL.TIME.FAVORITE! We just went a month or so ago, and I got a mint chocolate chip cone too! and BOY...did I make a mess! They don't exactly push the icecream down, it like wabbles all over the place. ha ha. I still have yet to ride on that carasal though.
I want to go to there. I love me some ice cream.
I love this! What a fun and carefree way to spend your day :)
LOVE perusing your blog. Your pictures are so sweet and nostalgic:)

This looks like a TON of fun! I would love to go do this with a friend! And that classic ice cream shop too? what a perfect way to have a "kid day"!
now I seriously want an ice cream cone. cute pictures!
Everything about this blog post is fantastic! I love the pictures. I love the places you went. I loved looking at everything as if I had been there too. I love the carousel (and the fact that you know it's not a merry-go-round ; ] ) Just awesome! The only thing I would change is, I have to say, you eating your ice cream cone while on the carousel would have been perfect. Cliche maybe, but perfect : ]
magic.
Friends make a huge difference when you live far from home. My husband would love that soda collection!
this is adorable!
Awwww. Everything looked perfect. The ice cream shop was adorable and I would love to go on a carousel ride.
