Our Garden

Aidan has been my motivation to plant our garden this year. He asks me every 5 seconds, "Can we plant the seeds yet??" He actually helped me weed the garden and did a good job planting seeds! And he told me I'm a great mama, so he gets the prize for nicest son today! :)
I forgot to take a 'before' picture, but here is the garden about 90% finished. We filled the wheel barrow to the top with weeds. Mint is a huge pain to pull up!!
And here is our freshly planted garden! I used seeds from a few years back, so here's hoping they grow! :) Notice the flowers already blooming on the far end? Beccah planted those last fall and they have been in bloom all winter. Weird little plants! But at least we have color in the garden.
Next we're going to plant herbs in our containers and try to remember to water them all summer. hehe
