Plantings

It's finally time.
Time to get the garden ready for growing.
We have the seeds, the dirt, the desire.


While Chad was getting everything ready, Olivia and Ezren found a rolly poly. 




Then we got to the gardening.
Ezren helped a little.
Olivia helped a little more.
Isaac didn't help at all -- he stayed inside "designing more sets for Lego."






The sad looking tomatoes in this picture were planted and have since perked up (much to the surprise of everyone).





We've got a pretty good garden going so far this year:
Corn
Tomatoes
Carrots
Green Beans
Onions
Cucumber
Green and Red Peppers
Blueberries

We're also trying some canteloupe and watermellon and a few different herbs elsewhere.  Those aren't protected from the squirrels and rabbits though, so who knows how they will turn out.
Let's hope for perfect growing weather -- rain and sun!
