I got up at 6:30 so I could get an early start to go see my Best Friend in Grand Haven. Bill got up early to go have breakfast with Alec. He left, then a couple minutes later I left. It was a beautiful day for a ride. I put my worship music on and enjoyed praising the Lord. It made the time go by fast. I got to her house at 10;40. She greeted me with a big hug. We were so happy to see each other. We visited and she showed me the new shower Terry put in their bathroom which is beautiful and also the sunporch where he took out the old screen windows and replaced them with nice windows. He does amazing work. He got home a few minutes later fr9m having a blood test and came in and talked with us. He was wishing Bill had come. I told him I would bring him with me next time. Vikki and I left then to go to lunch in Grand Haven. We drove in her new Toyota Crossover which was very nice nd very comfortable. She sold her Prius to a college student for 6,000. He didn’t even ask her to come down in price because he said he loves the Prius, knows how reliable they are and could tell they took really good care of it. It was a 2014, two years older than mine and had 300,000 miles on it. Mine has 160,000. I guess I will get a lot more miles out of mine. Both of us have only had to have brake pads changed. Nothing else has gone wrong with them. I hope mine lasts for a lot more years.
We got to the Restaurant which was also a bakery. We sat outside and ate since it was so nice out. We each had a chicken salad sandwich and a bowl of macaroni and cheese which were both delicious. We spent a long time talking and eating. We went into the bakery afterward and looked around. We were going to buy bread, but decided to go to another bakery in town instead. I did buy 2 big snickerdoodle cookies for Bill. We walked through lots of shops and each bought the same earrings and necklaces with crosses on them. We stopped at another bakery, and they asked us if we wanted a sample of cranberry bread. We said yes and they gave out whole big slices. It was so good, we both bought a loaf and I also bought Bill a loaf of white bread. We went through more unique shops and had so much fun looking at all the different things people had made. We walked back to the car and then went and had yummy ice cream at Vikki and Terry’s favorite ice cream shop. She told me to get a small because they serve big portions. I was glad I ordered small when I saw the size of the ice cream. It was delicous and was Hudsonville Ice Cream which is my favorite.
We went back to her house after that and visited some more and Terry joined us. Then we said our goodbyes and I left so I could get home before it got dark out. It was such a fun day with more memories made.
When I got home, I gave Bill his cookies and bread. He asked me to butter two slices of bread for him right away. I had some of my Cranberry bread. Yum! Kenzie FaceTimed me to show me the beautiful cake she made and decorated with her new mixer. It sure looked beautiful and she said it was delicious. I can’t wait to try it tomorrow. I called Sue and also Marie because they had both left me messages. I talked to both of them a long time. Then I talked to Melissa for a long time. Hailey came home today for the weekend, so I am looking forward to seeing her tomorrow at the parade.
It sure was a fun day. Fun to go visit and fun to come home and sit in my recliner next to Bill in his. I am so blessed.
