Grandpa and the Yard Sale

Last Wednesday evening after prayer meeting, Bob went through some of the donations that the members gave for the yearly yard sale. He found a box full of horses and immediately gave me a call to ask if he should buy them. He gave a donation for the treasured box of horses and brought them home. When Hannah and Gracie arrived home from their vacation, Hannah asked grandpa if he had anything special for them. When grandpa brought out the box of horses there were cheers and jumps of joy as they were handed that box of horses. They played with the horses the entire evening. When the girls had to go to bed, they put the horses to bed too.

They sure enjoyed their new horses.

The girls were asking us for name suggestions. When we would suggest a name they would suggest another name instead.
The girls are ready for bed and they get to take one horse each to sleep with.
This is where the girls decided that the rest of the horses should spend the night.

The girls have been having fun playing with the horses all weekend. What a great find!!!
