It is spring break. Says who? LOL!
We are not really having spring break! Not this year anyway. We had a big break at Christmas, and so for us the school must go on!
Although we haven't actually done anything school-y this week!
Yesterday we went to a friend's to do some stampin'! I made the cutest card, and a great little brag book and a neat little treat box! So much fun that was for me!
Today we went to the Tupperware office, and then we had to go to Wal-mart to pick up the stuff we need for this next unit!
We are studying Patience - plants (growth)
So I bought 72 peat pellets, a small greenhouse, and seeds for tomatoes, peas, corn, radishes, carrots, cucumbers, and bulbs for Gladiolus and a Peony bush!! Tomorrow we are going to start learning about plants. I have books, and videos, and then of course all of our seeds and supplies. We are also going to tie-in a fundraiser for Compassion Canada by hopefully selling some of our tomato plants when the time comes! And I am going to suck it up and brave the slugs. I really don't want to, and I am afraid they will still be there, but I am going to do it anyway. I missed having a garden. It was so fun for me! It was even fun just picking out the seeds today. There are so many varieties, and dd2's mouth was practically watering just looking at the seed packets! She needs a garden!
She is also the one who was practically begging for the Gladiolus package of bulbs! And dd1 loved the pictures of the peonies. Don't ask me what I am going to do with these things, I really don't know! I still wish that we would have went ahead and had that evergreen removed when we first moved in. The one at the back of the yard I mean. Then we could plant the peony bush by the fence. I don't think there is enough sun for them there with the tree there. We'll have to see I guess. Maybe I will get dh to ask at work for anyone who has a chainsaw, and he can get that tree out of there. It's never too late, right? Hmm, now the wheels are turning!
Oh well, I have to go. I should be going to bed, but I have a nice pot of Chai Tea, so I am going to see if I can't create a nice card and watch a bit of a chick flick!
Blessings!
