Our beautiful yard "award"

Yesterday in our mail box, was this little card. It said: To the Lucky Winners!! The Ashburton Garden Center had awarded us "First Prize" for the best kept cottage garden on the west side of Ashburton! In appreciation of your efforts you have won dinner for two at the Somerset Grocer. And the presentation would be on Friday at 12:00 pm. Well done! The standard was very high this year.

We were quite tickled over this! Kenny works very hard at keeping our wee yard looking beautiful! Inside were also two movie tickets.

I called our landlords, because incidentally, we were going to lunch with them on Friday at 12 at the Somerset Grocer. She laughed and immediately fessed up to having given us the card, because they had come by and commented on how nice the yard looked, and thought we should have "an award"! Upon looking closer the two movie tickets were out of her coupon book, and said the two tickets were at a discount price of only $26! They are very clever, and fun!!
