My VBS Beans are Growing!

I planted the beans last Friday evening, during VBS.  Hubby (the farmer), gave me an empty peat pot.  I added the moist soil and he chose 3 seeds which I stuck in the peat pot.  I added a thin layer of moist soil over it.  Look at my peat pot now.  My beans are growing!  

I guess it helps that hubby has a green thumb and that he happened to have a neat market stall called Farmer's Fields.

Besides planting, I also tried my hand at tie-dyeing.  I also got a chance to put together a coin box and then paint it.  Here's the results of my arts 'n craft from last week:

I might have to give a bit more thought to the tie-dyeing experience.  It was fun!
