My husband is the winner of my group writing project. Wanna know why? Because he was the only one who participated! Wanna know what his prize was? A great big kiss. Oh, don’t worry, if you had entered and won, it would have been a different prize. I like to custom make my prizes for each winner! π
By the way, if you are wondering what my favorite flower is, it is pictured in my original group write announcement. For those of you who are impatient, here is another picture. But now aren’t you curious what the first one looked like? Guess you’ll just have to check it out!

On the way home from the park last week, we allowed the kids to do something that normally is not allowed. Since their Granddaddy was back there with them supervising the chaos, we allowed them to play with a ball in the van! Here are half the resulting pictures.
