We have had so much fun in our garden this year and this has been the cherry on top. We are full of plans for next year and this has been just the motivation we need to make next years garden even better. I look forward to seeing what other events and information you have for us. Thank you once again. Thank you for the honor. We have had so much fun in our garden this year and this has been the cherry on top.

I haven't won a medal in anything since...let's see...high school Speech Contest and Latin contest. I'm just going to enjoy my moment on the podium for a few minutes... Thanks for sponsoring this; it was so much fun. I agree these Olympics should be an annual event. I have a feeling next year you'll be swamped with entries! Oh my goodness, I am speechless!

I just saw the competition mentioned on Prairie Rose's site and I wanted to enter my retriever, George, in the 'Cover a lawn with poo' competition. He was a dead cert for gold too.
