The Garden-Part 1

We finally stopped talking about making a garden and did it! I am so excited!!! So are the girls. We bought some as grown plants, but 4 veggies are starting as seeds-talk about a cool home school lesson!


Here is David and the big girls planting seeds. We have lettuce, spinach, cucumbers, and
green beans.


David and I worked on cleaning out the planter-we previously had flowers in there. Two were bush size...took some serious man-power for David to get them out. The big girls and I did the rest of the cleaning-twigs, rocks, tilling (yeah, that was a workout!), and roots.
Here is what we started with.
Mayah being helpful....and messy. Chiara was a super helper as always.

Our end result. We did such a good job David thought I added the top soil! Awesome!

  1. Looks great! Can't wait to see how well it goes. I've thought about starting a garden, but our backyard doesn't get a ton of sun because of all the trees.
