A Surprise From Granny

For as long as I've been alive, my grandparents lived in south-east Ohio very close to the original Bob Evans Farm in Rio Grande, Ohio. As a child, we would go to the farm/restaurant for dinner each time we went to visit. Like all fabulous grandparents, each time we went, they allowed us to pick out a little treasure from the gift shop to take home. A couple weekends ago, my sister, Cassie, went to visit my granny, and they went to Bob Evan's for lunch. While they were there, they picked out this little treasure for Lydia.





Lydia loves her new toy! She takes the animals out of the barn, then puts them back in. She squeezes the animals to hear the noises each makes. She puts the animals in her baby doll stroller, and sometimes she lines them all up on the bottom step of our staircase. And her new trick is to hold all the animals and the barn all at once,...

...and then drop them and let them all hit the floor! What great farm fun!!!
