Our First Family Garden

We FINALLY planted our first little garden in the backyard. We have never really had a good place to put one, and so we decided to clear out some yucky bushes and just plant a few things that we like the most. We weren't sure if this spot would be too shady, but so far the plants are doing really well.

Step One: Clear out bushes and weeds





Step Two: Worms??



Step Three: New soil




Step Four: Figuring out where everything should go








Step Five: Planting




Chad's turn - Zuchinni



Cameron's turn - Canteloupe



Kylie's turn - Basil


The Finished Product.....we are so excited to grow our own fruit, vegetables, and herbs!




These are our handprints from when we layed cement in the backyard in 2005 - just wanted to make sure I had a picture!
