Garden Party


Steve's colleague at work, Bob, and his wife, Nancy, threw a wonderful kid-centered garden party.  There was lots of yummy food and drink, including a fantastic carrot cake made with ingredients found in Bob and Nancy's garden.

Each child was given a terra cotta pot with their initial painted on it and access to paint, paintbrushes and stencils to create a masterpiece. Maddy chose a snail stencil and lots of bright colors! Then Bob gave Maddy her very own lavender plant and taught her how to pot it.

Bob and Nancy have an immaculately landscaped yard overflowing with fruit, vegetables, herbs and all kinds of flowers, plants and trees. It was gorgeous! Bob spent time with Maddy telling her all about soil and nutrients.

 We all had a great time, and after all the excitement, Maddy was one tuckered-out little girl.
