Also today: our neighbor came by and left us a box with about 25 Barbies in it that had belonged to his daughter PLUS accessories (um, thanks?), and we picked up two teensy desert tortoises from one of Pat's coworkers. They're going to be living with us now and this makes me very nervous because from everything I have read on google, we're bound to do it all wrong and they will be dead within the week.
The other day we did a little craft that I found via the Crafty Crow, using paper towels and watercolor paints. It made a neat tie dye effect and the finished product looks pretty in the window.
We also made some homemade play-dough, which we have of course done before, but I have never tried a cooked play-dough recipe and it was so much smoother and just really nice.
We also planted a very small garden and every day I wake up and look at it and wonder at the miracle of those plants still being alive even though I am their main caretaker. I'm sure it won't last. This here might one day reach tomato-dom if the whole thing doesn't die off before then! Very exciting!
These are actual strawberries! They're only as big as my pinkie nail, but still!
I should point out that all the plants we currently have in our garden were bought as plants, not seeds. I'm sure they would have never made it this far if it had been otherwise.
Harper has a video up for a Webkinz contest and if you go watch it, she will get more views and might win some cool stuff! Here it is!

WHAT. No. He is four months old. I am absolutely certain of it.
aw love the tortoises!
have you look into getting the tortoise guide from the tortoise group? i think you can find it online too.
You obviously made that first bit of news up. So that's okay!
Those turtles are cuter than they have any right to be.
