Family Adventure

We ventured outside to the backyard last week.
After 4 hours of GLORIOUS work, our GARDEN is now in the ground!
This is a first for both of us...
Of course we had many WONDERFUL opportunities to weed and help in our families' gardens when we were younger...
But this is our first time creating our own.
I get a sense of satisfaction knowing we are a little more independent...

We'll both be surprised and ELATED if something - ANYTHING - grows.

Cam worked the shovel...


While posing for an EXCELLENT shot of his backside.


Brayden helped spread the dirt - over the garden area, over the grass area, and on the rocks.


Model pose...


So happy to be working


Aydrie occupied herself in her chair...


And later, turned circles in the grass (not crawling yet, but can maneuver quite well).


It was an adventure not to be forgotten!

That sounds fun. We want to have a garden some day too. It is way fun to see the plants grow that YOU planted yourself.

Oh man! I love gardens!!! Not really the whole weeding thing, but I love harvesting. We had a blast w/ ours last year! I'm so sad we will not have one this year, but hopefully next year we will have somewhere to put our roots down :) Enjoy yours! Looks fun.
