The Pea Patch Gals played hooky on Thursday, February 28, visiting the Calgary Home and Garden Show.  It was a day of a lot of walking, shopping, some great food and a lot of laughs.  Here are some highlights of our day:

While waiting for the doors to open, (we were early!?!), my sister thought it would be funny to make the geese come closer to where I was standing.  (Those of you who know me, know of my extreme loose bird dislike.)

Iguana statuary for the garden, and a really cool patio umbrella that Mom needs.  (If you are reading Dad, hint, hint.)

MMM, lunch time!  We had a chicken parmigiano from one of the food trucks.  It was great!  I loved this little meditating frog, so much I had to stop and take a picture - well I was doing that all day - but he made the final cut into the blog post and newsletter :)

Karen loves terrariums, and this little beachy one was really cool.  I hope to put it on our short list of things to build this year.  I love fences that are a little out of the ordinary, and we are due to replace ours soon.  I really like these horizontal boards.

But wait, there's more!  A day wouldn't be complete without funky pink polka dotted golf shoes and eggplant penguins!  Haha, we may have heard that a few times over the course of the day.  
All in all we had a great time, solved the hose problem (we hope) in the greenhouse - we bought one of the shrinking hoses, and will be armed and dangerous with our new slicers come sauerkraut making time!  (I've used my slicer a few times already - it's handy!)
