Do You Believe in Fairies?





Legend says that fairies come out on the shortest night of the year. In celebration of Summer Solstice, Engh Gardens sponsored a Fairy Festival including a fairy garden contest. Hannah and Ava went to a class last week to learn how to build a fairy garden, while they were there Studio 5 came and filmed so they got to be on TV! You can imagine how excited they were about that.
As if that wasn't enough, Hannah entered a garden in the contest and was the winner for her age group! She was soooo happy and Ava was so excited for her sister that she kept giving her tight squeezes saying, "I LOVE you Hannah! I'm SO happy you won!" It was super fun. DeAnn went with us, otherwise I wouldn't have tried to go by myself with the girls and Easton. They got to dress like fairies and be in a fairy parade. Hannah won a $25 gift certificate so they each got a fairy from the gift shop. It was a magical day! Hannah also lost a tooth that morning so the tooth fairy came last night. The girls are certain that she visited their garden and had a party last night. We hope you all have an enchanted summer!
