Strawberry Patch!

Our landlord asked us, "Are you going to plant anything in the garden?" I told him, "Maybe strawberries." A couple weeks later, he got us 12 strawberry plants! WOO HOO! STRAWBERRIES!!
Now all be have to do is plant it. (mom and I talking to each other) One week: lets go plant it! Week two: it's nice outside maybe we should go plant the strawberries. Week: You know we should really go plant the strawberries! About 2 months we FINALLY planted the strawberries (mom and dad, I was taking the pictures). So here's all the steps we did to plant the strawberries:


Take all the weeds out, make the dirt really nice looking. Put some black stuff, I think it's mesh or some kind of cloth to keep the weeds from coming up and tangling the strawberry plants. Lay it all out, cover it up mesh with wood chips and dirt.Decide where the strawberries go, make holes in the mesh and dirt to put the strawberries in, And there you have it........a strawberry patch!

The Player's Hand

Playing cards is fun especially if you have some one is really quite (mom), someone of is a goofball (dad), and me who's i don't know, maybe a mix. lol






You guys all know how to play Straight Gin, right? If not here's how you play: You will be given 10 cards, look at them, within your hand you can have runs and sets. Of course it is very unlikely you will be dealt all runs and sets. You will put the deck in the middle of the table, flip the top card, and if you are the first player you can take the flip card or draw from the deck, and decide if you need that card for a run or set; then discard, so you always have 10 cards. Then its the next player's turn. This goes on until your hand consists runs or sets (all 10 cards) or both. When you think you have it, you discard your last card but face it down on the discard pile and show everyone what you have.




Quite simple. It is very fun. You can do points, but it's just a lot of thinking to it and writing.


Let's just stick to your hand and play!
