wednesday december 21st is our christmas "party" at build a bear workshop in down town disney

please arrive IN UNIFORM by 5:45, meet at the build a bear shop

we will pay for our bears from our group funds so just come and enjoy!!

our new "farm" at camp fire

our garden plot is weeded, amended and new plants are in!! stop by and check it out sometime!! we need everyone to help with watering so if you are passing by and have a minute, stop and spray a little water over our new plants and seeds. use a light spray, the plants are very fragile but need lots of water to get strong roots. thanks to everyone who came out and helped, we did a great job!! we planted sugar snap peas, rosemary, cabbage and onions. i threw in some carrot, beet, chard and squash seeds too. we will be taking over the area that runs next to our plot, inside the gate along the building so get ready for more weed pulling!!
