Earth Day Photo Challenge Prize

Imagine our surprise today when a little parcel arrived in the post for us.

We had forgotten all about the Earth Day Photo Challenge competition we had won on Hitty Girls.

Lots of goodies arrived especially for us.

Hitty Moana shows some of the lovely gardening books which will be a valuable resource.

Looks like Hitty Carol Faith has almost fallen asleep reading hers!

Hitty Natalie Rose couldn't be more delighted.  She has more seeds, gloves and row markers for her garden.

Best of all she received a little bonnet and bag which couldn't match her lovely dress and apron any more perfectly.

What a super surprise indeed.

Thank you so much Susan K. 

Earth Day and Jane Austen

Hitty Joy reminds us that today is Earth Day.

She suggests that we do some work in the garden to contribute to our little bit of the world.

We check on the wildlife to make sure they are happy and healthy

Plant some seeds...

...and discuss how we can encourage wildlife into the pond which will in turn just help a little bit in contributing to looking after our Earth.

While we were busy outside our person was busy making up the Jane Austen Bonnet kit that JOC sent us last year.

Hitty Joy has the smallest head so she got to model it.

A very fine specimen of a bonnet it is indeed.

Doesn't Hitty Joy look a treat in it, and she seems very happy indeed.

In all its glory.
