Beka rides the teacups

Each of the girls got to choose a ride to go on at the Show. Beka chose to go on the teacups.

Petting Zoo

We went to the Fraser Coast Show on Thursday with some of the school classes. All of the kids loved the petting zoo. It took Nate a little while to like feeding the animals. But then he got this great look on his face when he realized they would eat out of the cup. I have a cute video that captures it but it's a bit long. Anyway, once Nathan got over his little fear of the animals he started chasing the chickens. =)

peas and corn

So far I have snow peas (along the fence) and corn growing in my garden. I have seeds for lettuce and tomato but just haven't gotten around to planting them yet. The rain is making the corn do really well. Hope they get nice and big and have lots of corn to eat. =)

of course I had to show you some flowers too. I planted pansies in my little wooden planter. And Emma has some petunias that she bought with her own birthday money. The rain is helping them grow well too. =)

more vinyl

I put up some vinyl in the bathroom. Didn't wait quite two weeks and some paint peeled off but it seemed a little loose anyway. Oh well, the girls made sure to show Josh as soon as he came home. the missing paint, not the vinyl. =)
