Local toy store Playthings Etc. is celebrating not just its 20th anniversary this year, but the celebration is not stopping there.

On Wednesday, July 30, Allen and Sarah DiFrischia marked their 20th wedding anniversary by recreating one of their wedding photos at the store, 2483 William Flynn Highway in Clay Township.

According to the Playthings’ Facebook post, the couple had their wedding reception inside the newly built “spaceship” building in 2005.

Sarah DiFrischia’s parents, Todd and Nadine Shingleton have kept the business in the family for the past 20 years. Allen has also been the store’s manager over that same span.

The business will continue celebrating with its own 20th anniversary event Sept. 27.
