No Longer Ours...

When we bought our new home, there were some various things left in the barn from the previous owners. We acknowledged that they still had these items and they would come to clean those things out.

The weekend that our families were out here to help us move, my dad found this beautiful old horse drawn sleigh in the rafters of the shed. Doug and I decided not to mention anything to the previous owners - hoping that by some chance they forgot it was there.

Well, about a month or so ago, they mentioned they would be back over to finish getting things out of the barn...and to get the sleigh down from the rafters.

Bummer.

They remembered.

So...this weekend they were over here to take it away. I was able to capture this picture as they were leaving the driveway.

It was even more impressive up close, and this picture really doesn't do it justice. I had big plans of setting this out in the winter with lights and bells and a Santa and...

Oh, well...it was ours for a little while.
