Overnight with Lydia

This Friday and Saturday was Lydia's turn to stay overnight with us. Lydia loves shopping so after picking her up at her house, we made some stops on our way home.

First stop--Main Street Closet!

Second stop - Goodwill

Lydia doesn't miss anything when she is shopping. She found little gems hidden here and there in both stores of things she wanted and of course as long as the price was reasonable Grandma was glad to oblige. We were especially delighted to find a pair of sneakers for her that fit just perfectly. They even light up when she walks!

Friday evening we took a trip to Mapehofe for ice cream and then enjoyed a beautiful sunset on the deck before watching a movie before bed.

Yum!

Waiting for the sun to set.

Saturday morning after choosing her breakfast from the store (she told me she had thought about it ahead of time and knew exactly what she wanted) we visited our neighbors alpaca and sheep farm.

Apple Danish and chocolate milk - can't go wrong there!

Dolly the sheep would have been happy to eat all the crackers she had!

The baby alpaca in the background is only 2 weeks old

Saturday afternoon she spent with Awstin and Bryce and Melissa took them to the Splash Pad at Muddy Run. I picked her up after closing the store and after packing up her things Steve and I took her home. On the way we stopped at the Centerville Diner for supper.

Lydia ordered shrimp and french fries!

One other thing I should mention. Lydia raises rabbits and she had the idea of putting up a poster at our store with a picture of three that she had for sale. I also posted it on our store Facebook page. Typically she sells her bunnies at Roots Auction and gets about $2.00 a bunny. She advertised them for $10.00 and sold 2 of them! She was thrilled! A neighbor from the store bought them so on our return trip from taking Lydia home we brought Petey and Fluffy along with us. The neighbor was waiting for us and now Lydia is $20.00 richer! :)

The poster that made her richer.

A fun weekend indeed!
