    Click on the photo to view a brief slideshow of the stick fence my husband made me for my vegetable garden (we've got chicken wire all around on the inside of the garden to keep out the critters). He also surprised me with an antique tub that I quickly turned into a planter. Both turned out great...now we just need some heat to get things to grow.

    I love what you've done with the antique tub. Blue in a garden is one of my all time favourite colours. What a lovely hubby you've got to build a fence for your birthday. :-D

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY KASEYLIB!! :smt113

    You must add your birthday to our calendar so that we can celebrate it with you next time around.

    Happy Birthday Kaseylib!
    Your fence looks great! The bathtub worked out well too. I love your yard...lots of mature trees, pathways, and stone. Gorgeous!

    Love your birthday presents! Your new garden fence will blend in perfectly with your beautiful gardens and that bathtub is to die for. Love the blue colour and bright colours of the flowers.

    Happy Birthday, Kaseylib!

    Happy Birthday, first off.
    Second... I love that fence! Love it, love it, love it. And the tub too. Did you collect all the sticks for the fence?
    What a nice hubby too!

    Oh yes! I forgot about the cute dog... is he one of the critters you need to keep out of the veggie patch? He looks like he doesn't know from fences in that pic!

    Happy Birthday Kasey...I love the tub but I would like it in the house...wow to just be able to soak again...It is so nice to have them put your fence up...will the deer still jump it? Your gardens are beautiful...and isn't this rain the pits...rain, rain go away for a couple weeks at least. I put my heat back on because of the winds and cool weather..Sherry
