Lazy Acres Nursery

I finally got the picture to upload. I sent them via email to some of you the other day but I don't think they went to mom/dad - the file was too big. So...here they are:


What you see when you first walk in....and it smelled OH so good in there!


All the flowers...






these are some of the tomatoes I believe...I can't remember what was where...


she has strawberries already!!!

tomatoes


strawberries


all the peppers....growing


that's Pam in the background...checking some of the starters


view from one side to the other


this is how she starts seeds...and yes, they are that tiny. Once the seed sprouts and she can pull them out, she transfers them to a bigger container.



I can't remember her actual open date....but she is having a grand opening I believe May 1...there will be an article in the Greenville paper about a new business. I don't know any prices...and currently she's still looking for a used register.

Comfy Cozy Baby begins...

Here is the first burp cloth I made. The Cowboy burp cloth. What's everyone's opinion??





Here are the stacks of flannel I have to use....I bought 6 yards and then the rest was donated by a friend - she had bought and never used...from last year or the year before.




I'm looking for opinions before I make a TON of things....

Thanks!

Comfy Cozy Baby...

Think that sounds like a good company name? I've been thinking (with Ron's encouragement) of making baby blankets and burp cloths to sell online. I don't want to get in over my head but think it will be fun and something to do when he's at work (which seems like a lot this month...). My last 2 friends that have had a baby I have made them a flannel blanket...and they both LOVED it. Not too heavy, not too thin and my last friend told me it was her son's FAVORITE blanket and would NOT sleep without it. (aww!) I will have to experiment with things and see what I can get material-wise. Joanne's has flannel on sale this week so I'm making a trip to Hermitage tomorrow and Walmart has a sale on possible burp cloth material (thanks mom!).

I think I'll start by advertising by word of mouth and on ebay and see how it goes...hopefully they will sell but not like crazy at least until I get a routine down!


So...that's about all that has been going on with us...Ron's still waiting to hear about the position - one spot was filled by a fellow coworker just last week...so please still be praying. His hours did get better but in April he only has Easter Sunday off (for Sundays) b/c it was requested (supposed to make it to Jason's...) :( so back to going to church without him. :(

Other than that...not much exciting. I've been working long hours and 4 days a week for about the past month or so...hopefully that'll change and I can get caught up again...and start training for my new position!

Once I get some blankets and burp cloths made...I'll post some pictures. Let me know what ya'll think about the possible name... :)
