~ WELCOME TO FAIRYTOPIA ~

My daughter is a big "fan" of the Barbie movies, and as shocking as this might be to some of the folks that know me

, they are actually good movies.. Anyhoot, after church we try and swing into the local Goodwill every chance we get when we are up that side of town, so today was no different. I was hoping to catch the little houses they had there for the past several weeks, but no luck, instead I was able to snag a little little house(this is smaller than the ones I had been eying). So I was thrilled, then DD spotted the two fairies, so then she was excited cause this only ment we could get going on her "fairytopia". The minature flag we picked up at the Dollar General next door to the Goodwill, along with some other things. After we left the Goodwill I made a quick stop at our Lowes, and came out with a 2 (12 pack) cartons of these flowers Each Carton was $1 YES a $1, they had several other flower containers that I picked up, Seeds were also bought, and a soil tester for the garden plot. As you can read I am getting a bit of Spring planting fever. The kids and I are so excited to be heading out doors more, now that the sun is starting to tease us and the flowers are peeking their first blooms of the new up coming season. The above picture is the "fairy topia" village DD and I did when we got home, We use the kids old Red Rider Wagon as our landscape area for the " enchanted " villa.lol I am hoping to attract the lady/man bugs to this area, as I have seen a few sneek into my home. I may pick up some worms too to help keep the soil good.... Remember folks, Lady Bugs, bees and worms are Your FLOWER FRIENDS!!

I was also VERY surprised at the quality of the Barbie movies. I love watching them with my daughter, and ds6 likes them too - the heroine does more than wish for her prince to save her, and they are NOT morally ambivilent.
