Remember when I said wild life is interesting last week and we talked about rabbits AND duck eggs? We spotted the rabbit and he is the size of a jackrabbit, as Jack witnessed it running from the Garden Center one morning. And the duck eggs? They were empty. SMH.

One of our designers, Billy, celebrated his birthday last week. He has acclimated to our culture but it was time to ramp it up a notch.

Lisa, our new Landscape Client Care Admin, started with us three weeks ago. She, too, has acclimated and fit right in. How do I know this?

Exhibit A. I grabbed the foil from the kitchen and she was in hot pursuit right before Billy arrived. We wrapped and wrapped. Doug jumped in to help. The only regret I have is that we didn't wrap each individual pen for funzies.

After we finished, Doug looked at Billy's desk and said, "Is that my banana?" I was pretty sure the banana was there and it was Billy's, but Lisa and I decided they can hash that out on their own.

If you have not done this to someone you adore, I highly recommend it. The laughter that ensued was worth it. Happy 30th birthday, Billy! It's all downhill now. JK.

We offer fun, laughter, and plants. This, too, we do well.
