Full StoryCelebrating the "March into Spring"!!!
Did you realize the month of March has a holiday "of sorts" each and every day? Petal Pushers are known for bringing smiles to each other and this month will be no different! After all, laughter, humor and smiles are the best medicine there is.
Each week throughout the month, there will be message board activities posted for all members of the group to participate in. You may be given a small assignment (silly or serious) regarding that particular days "holiday" theme. We will all look forward to your sharing of the assignment/activity during the week so we can all join in "celebration" with you. This is part of the "March into Spring" and may make little sense but I promise all will be much clearer (or not) as we begin! ;-) Each Sunday, the name of one of previous weekÂs participant will be drawn to receive a small gift from the fainthearted one. Just like the lottery, you gotta play to win. Lol
Now for the swap portion of this celebration! Here are the guidelines:
1. Sign-ups will be taken until 11:59 pm CST Friday, February 29th.
2. Partners will be posted Saturday, March 1st.
3. Delivery confirmation for your package sent is a must!
4. Packages must be sent ON OR BEFORE MARCH 20th, the first day of SPRING! Wooooooohoooooo!!!!!!!!!
5. In honor of "Plant a Flower" Day (3-12-08), send your partner a small amount (3-5 seeds in the hope one germinates) of some kind of flowering plant to be planted in a pot/container. DO NOT include the NAME but DO include growing requirements/conditions, height, etc. Use your imagination. It could be a house plant, annual or perennial. It is my hope that we can share guesses about our "mystery" surprise in the months to come.
6. In honor of St. PatrickÂs Day, send your partner something green OR an Irish Blessing OR something to bring them a "bit o Irish luck".
7. With Spring, we are reminded of "rebirth" in the gardens. Send your partner some type of bulb (quantity up to you) to help bring their summer garden to life.
8. And finally, as Easter approaches, we gather with family and friends to celebrate. Send your partner one (or more) of your favorite recipes that help to make your celebration complete.
To recap: your partner should receive 3-5 "mystery" seeds, something green OR an Irish blessing OR a "bit o Irish luck", Spring planting bulb(s), and a favorite recipe. DonÂt forget to join us weekly for some silly and/or serious activities related to each "holiday" of the month!
Most importantly, this should be a month of fun!!! We are all anxious for warmer, more stable weather and sharing a little fun with each other throughout the month will help to make the wait a bit more tolerable. :-) I hope IÂve done everything right! If you have any questions, ask away!
