Show Us Your Life-China Patterns

Kelly at Kelly's Korner is hosting Show Us Your Life-China Patterns today. My future sister-in-law and I are very lucky because we had our china patterns before we took the marital plunge, ha.

My parents received two china patterns for their wedding. One was my mom's choice and the other was a gift from my dad's co-workers. Before I left for college my brother and I chose which one was ours. However, it really wasn't difficult to decide.

My brother's choice for my future SIL, whoever she may be. I hope she likes it. But who wouldn't.


And mine. I love roses. Our wedding had lots of pink roses at it. It's like my signature, ha!!

When My Cowboy and I got married we chose a fiestaware by Sango. I love it because it is timeless. I can dress it up or down with accessories. It goes with anything. But most importantly, I didn't want anything that said, "You were married in 20??". I wanted it to be something that changed with the times.


It is wonderful to know that my parents started a tradition that will be carried on through the generations. I love being able to know that now I have two patterns that I can share with my children.

    I LOVE the set that belongs to your brother, and the rose plate is GORGEOUS!!! I also like your dinnerware choice, my man is so annoyed that most places we go to have the square plates now because that's what's in style :(
