A New Toy

Linda, Erin, and I escaped on Friday afternoon for a few hours of girl time outside of the kitchen. We spent a fun hour browsing in a bookstore/gift shop and then stopped at the local tea room for a light lunch and yummy pots of tea. We don't often get to spend time as just the girls, so it was a rare treat and highlight of our holiday together. All three of us were able to find some fun gifts for the people on our Christmas lists including each other.

Earlier in the week we'd been talking about how many fun wooden toys are available these days. As luck would have it, we stumbled upon the most beautiful hand carved Noah's Ark set. Linda happily snatched it up for her granddaughter and brought it home. I envision many happy hours of play for daddy and his girl in the years ahead.
