Just thought I'd let you all know. I am going to really update one of these days... really. Right now I'm at my grand parents house. Today we went to my cousins first cheering at a Jr. Varsity Football game. We left at halftime just as it started to POUR! Those poor kids... Before that Grandpa took me to the driving range, to hit my first golf balls. Yes, I ACTUALLY did HIT most of them, not just empty swings, and one made it 80 or 90 yards. I think we're going tomorrow too. Maybe I'll get a picture.
I'm also up here to figure out what style hope chest I want. (Whenever one of us granddaughters graduates G&G gives us a hope chest.) We were looking for ideas online at this website http://www.trunk.com/ there was one for $5,550! Goodness, don't you think that's a little much?? They have lots of cool antique trunks, check it out.
$5,550. I still can't get over it...

How well do you know the Bible??
I was surprised I did so well. How about you?
Wow! You are awesome! You are a true Biblical scholar, not just a hearer but a personal reader! The books, the characters, the events, the verses - you know it all! You are fantastic!

And the Winner is...
"Guess the nummber of jellybeans in the jar and you could win a trip to....Hawaii!"
Okay, so it wasn't Hawaii, or jellybeans for that matter, but I did try to guess the number of candies in the jar at the book fair at our library.
Children's Librarian:" So you going to try?"
Me:" Yeah, I might as well, I've never won anything before in my life. You can always try! What have people been guessing at?"
C.L.:"I've heard a lot of sixties, I don't even know what's in there, I just dumped them in."
Me:*Counts for a moment* "Looks like more than that to me, I'll try...78."
Fast-forward to lunch today. Phone rings. I answer.
Me:"Hello?" (with my best british accent:-)
Library:" Hi Lydia? This is the Public Library, I just wanted to let you know you won our guess the number of candies in the jar game at the book fair!"
Me: *Faint*
Okay, so I didn't faint, but I laughed pretty hard and was sort-of dazed for a sec. it's not that big of a deal, but when you've never won anything your entire life, it's pretty fun. Actually I didn't guess it on the number, but I was the closest without going over.
I thought it was fun:-)

See You Later;-)
To avoid Erica posting for me again I thought I'd do a last post before we're off to our dream vacation out east, we're going to DC, New Jersey and my cousin's wedding. We're planning on taking lots of pictures so when I get back I'll post them with all the pictures from camp I STILL haven't gotten around to sharing with you all. Just for fun I'll post my favorite one right now as a parting gift to you all. I might be able to be on some while we're gone, we'll see.
Wish us well!
Lydia
P.S. Here's Joe in line on hamburger day. I just love him to pieces!

It's late and I'm tired, but...
Everybody is doing these things so I oughta too I guess. Yes I know, "If all your friends jumped of a cliff would you????" Well no, but this won't hurt. I would rather REAL hugs, not cyber ones, they're kinda cold and impersonal if you think about it....
*HUGS* TOTAL!give LydiaMargie more *HUGS*
Get hugs of your own
Cheerio,
Lydia

Lydia Margaret is at Camp....
...and most of her readers are too. But there are a few that aren't, so I'm updating for her for their benefit. Lydia was at my house for a week at the beginning of July, and here are some pictures from then:
First, a couple of buddy-buddy pictures. We always get buddy-buddy pictures taken when Lydia comes to my (Erica's) house
And our awesome older sisters:
Audrey and Debbie...
Rachel and Susie
One afternoon Lydia (and her sisters) had to help us unload 60-pound hay bales off of the hay rack into the barn. Here she and Merrill enjoy the feel of the wind rushing past at forty miles an hour, after they finished working.
Most of our hard-working, hay-unloading crew. Debbie, Merrill, Audrey, and Lydia.
On Tuesday night the Woodwarth Dramatic Society performed Sense & Sensibility. Bits and pieces from it, at least. Aunt Alice got lots of good pictures, and here are two of Lydia playing two of her parts:
Fanny Dashwood on the left and Lucy Steele on the right, discussing Lucy's chance of marriage.
Marianne Dashwood (left) takes a quick break to laugh at Lady Jennings with Lady Jennings.
I'm sure Lydia is having a wonderful time at camp, and I'm just having a jolly good time here updating her blog!
