Playing In The Dirt

Sometimes you just gotta let your kids play in the dirt.  

Since our latest move, I've met a really cool girl named Rebekah.  Last week my washing machine went kaput and she let me come over to wash a load at her house.  While there she provided a wonderful project for the girls...they planted vegetable seeds!  Rebekah earned her degree in horticulture and is all about growing her own vegetable starts.  I think that's so cool.

Here's Avery planting away...

This is Rebekah's little cutie.

Look at the vegetable plants now!!  All this growth was accomplished in a little over a week.  Isn't nature amazing?

Here's a BIG THANK YOU to Rebekah!!

Who will be planting a garden this year?  What will you be planting?? 

xo,

Pamela

I had so much fun with the kids, too. Kaitlynn checks the progress of her plants everyday. You asked who will be doing a garden...I will for sure be doing a garden! :)

Oh how fun! I remember potting away in my Grandmas Garden when I was little. She had a gorgeous Italian vegetable garden, with tomatoes, basil, radicchio, Italian parsley, the works. We would come over, and we'd all go out and pick the vegetables, and then bring it in and make a big Italian meal - and then all our Uncles and Aunts and cousins would come over and enjoy it with us.

Eventually I want to have a garden to share with my little kidlets.

Weird! I just posted something similar...well, questioning what people are doing in the garden this year. We are planting a veggie garden and salsa is a must as a product, but I think you need to visit to teach me how to can! :)
