Hmmm! What's This?

The first five people to respond to this post will get something made by me! My choice - For you. This offer does have some restrictions and limitations:

1. I make no guarantees that you will like what I make!
2. What I create will be just for you.
3. It’ll be done within a year. {might be a little while}
4. You will have no clue what it’s going to be. It may be a story. It may be poetry or maybe even some creation I haven’t even invented yet. I may draw or paint something. I may bake you something and mail it to you. I may even sew something for you. Who knows? Not you, that’s for sure!
5. I reserve the right to do something extremely strange.

The catch? Oh, the catch is that you must re-post this on YOUR blog and offer the same to the first 5 people who do the same on your blog.

How does our Garden Grow?

We finally got our garden planted last Saturday.  We planted some tomatoes, onions, peppers, lettuce, squash, beans, peas, zucchini, cucumbers, etc.  Here is a picture of the radishes.  Very fun.  Thanks mom & dad Asay for playing in the dirt with us.  

As a side note... we did not encounter any frogs this year.  And after a class with Claire at the nature center, I learned that it was a toad not a frog.
