How Does Your Garden Grow?

This year Brant and I are trying a garden for the very first time. We decided since it was the first time we have ever attempted one that we would make it small. So we made an 8X8 elevated garden. We have been so excited to get it started.


Today we finally got the opportunity to plant our veggies. We planted squash, okra, corn, and cucumber. We also planted a strawberry plant in another container.




The girls were so excited with their vegetable plants in hand. They could not wait to plant them.






We thought a garden would be fun for the kids. Halle loves everything to with gardening and flowers. She is very excited and now we just anxiously await the harvest! I hope we have a harvest. :)

Oh fun! The girls will love that. We had one when we were kids and it was so exciting to pick things when they were ready!
