Nothing says friendship like a "potted" plant!

So we've had these pranks, I guess you could say, with some friends of ours for a couple years now. It all started when I left my house to get the mail and to my amazement I found a happy group of garden gnomes tending to my flowers. Several months later we were house-sitting for said family and we replaced a wall hanging with a plaque that said:

"A Friend Is Someone Who Will Bail You out of Jail, but Your Best Friend Is the One Sitting next to you Saying 'D*** that was fun!"

I don't think it took them too long to notice, but still a good laugh. Those are a couple highlights, but you get the idea, so with that said...

We have been watching for a toilet at a garage sale FOR-EV-ER and we were thrilled when we found this beauty below for $5! It just so happened that this family had to go out of town this weekend and we were able to do a little architectural landscaping for them while they were away. We originally thought to add a water feature with a fountain inside the bowl, but this clean simple "water feature" was just what their yard needed! Wouldn't you agree? They should be home in a couple days, and we're hoping that not only will they have a surprise to come home to - it's been in the yard long enough that they just might get a letter from the HOA! Good times! Lovely arrangement I must say.
