The weather has been wonderful here. It has been in the 80's for 2 weeks. About 3 weeks ago Tayler and Makenna talked to me about wanting to have a garden this year. We don't have a lot of room in our yard so I really didn't want to dig up any grass to do this. I asked them what they wanted to plant. Makenna wanted to plant tomatoes, even though she would never in a million years eat one, and Tayler wanted carrots. Bailey decided on pumpkins and a little herb garden that is in the house. We added a strawberry plant to that. So.....off I went to Lowe's to buy some wood to make planter boxes. I measured, cut, added a little wood glue, screws, and brad nails. When the girls got home I surprised them with their boxes, seeds, and plants. They planted their little garden. It is so exciting now to see that the tomato plants have doubled in size and our carrots and pumpkin seeds have now sprouted out of the soil. Now we just have to make sure Bailey doesn't pick them too soon.
