The Lavender Fairy

Wednesday morning.
It's a beautiful day. The sun is hiding behind the clouds. It's there and it's trying to get out but for now it's hiding.

Cherie, J, Elle & I are starting our morning early and heading out to visit some fairy's. There is a family owned Lavender farm quietly tucked away in the woods of Harwich.

J, Elle & I visited this farm a few years ago and discovered an amazing little secret. This farm has fairies! Down a path to the lavender farms is a little garden. Among the garden are cleverly hidden fairy houses. In the center of the garden is a 4' fairy castle. The best part of this garden is finding the fairy homes. We found 4. If there are more we'd be amazed!

We bought some lavender chocolate and Auntie brought some of her vacation home with her to her own garden and bought a lavender plant of her own. We did the same a few years ago.

As the sun worked it's way out we worked our way over to a pottery studio. This was in another section of Harwich also in the woods. The studio was open and so was the store. In a clearing in the woods was a gallery store with no walls and the pottery littered the property. We saw some of the coolest castle bird feeders we've ever se before!

All this trekking into the woods was making us hungry. We headed back to the cottage for some much needed lunch. And sure enough the sun cam out! I was wiped out so I needed to lie down. The girls decided to hit the beach down the street and soak up the sun.

Shortly after wveryone returned from the beach I decided to take a bike out for a local cruise and some photography. I didn't go too far and knew we'd be closing in on dinner soon. Taking some local shots in the warm sun kept me close to the cottage.

Cherie treated us for dinner to dinner at "The Paddock". The nicest place we had been too all week.. And the food was amazing! We all enjoyed our dinner! And Elle got to try some more clam chowder and it was GOOD!

To work off dinner we went back down to the Artist Shanty's so Cherie could check'em out. Ellie showed her around the pier and pointed out the famous Pirate ship.

From here we set out for dessert! Katie's Home made ice cream on Main St, Hyannis!
Main St. was hopping. We all got cones. Ellie got her usual Cookie Dough Ice Cream.

The ice cream was so good we went again on our last night.

Today was a great day!
