I finally went to Canton, Texas


Ever since we moved here all I have heard is You have to go to Canton... Have you ever been to Canton? You will love Canton.. You are just gonna die when you go to Canton.. Canton is incredible you have to go! So this last weekend me and my bff who is also known as my younger sister Michele met in the BIG town of Gun Barrell City and stayed the weekend.. She has never been to Canton either but has really wanted to go too so we planned this weekend to go. Gun Barrell is only 20 minutes from Canton so it was perfect. So we met on Friday morning at the hotel which was brand new and very nice, we unloaded our cars and got our things together and took off.. OMG~~ I seriously thought I had died and gone to heaven. If you like to shop it was your heaven too.. Its called First Monday and its huge, its the whole town shop after shop, booth after booth it has everything you can think of I mean everything just awesome!So we get there and look at each other and laugh and I am just like come on lets shop, we had a ton of fun so we shopped and we shopped and we shopped so we were getting tired and knew we had a full day the next day so about 5 that afternoon we went to a shop that I had wanted to go to which is incredible its called Paul Michael's Home Decor if you are there check it out if not at least google it,so we go in and they are serving wine to all the shoppers and of course we jumped on that.. From there with me and the start of a migraine we go to eat we were going to go to the
Beach Club" with DJ Friction but decided that probably would not be a good idea..lol so we went and had Mexican food, Michele said it was great but me with the headache my taster was gone:(..so after dinner ran and got advil knocked the headache out and shopped at all the big stores in Gun Barrell:) needless to say we didn't buy much..lol SO we called it a night and went back to the hotel and talked and laughed most of the night.. The next morning we got up bright and early and back to Canton we went, we shopped and shopped and had a great time we then decided we had seen enough of canton so we took off to Tyler and shopped until the stores closed:) We then headed back and what was suppose to be a 45 min ride back to Gun Barrell turned into 2 hrs..lol I took the wrong turn and we ended up on the other side but it turned out fine, we talked and laughed and of course made more memories..lol.. We then got back and were hungry so we went to Denny's at 11:00 p.m. and laughed and laughed some more.. Then it was time to turn in so of course that turned into more talking and laughing.. What a great time.. I am so blessed to have her as my best friend and I look forward to many many more fun trips together,we are so blessed to have husbands who understand we need girl time and let us go and have fun.. Cant wait til our next outing which is already in the works...If you have never been to Canton I highly recommend it... Plan a trip and let me know when you are going and I will go too:)
