Expanding our Garden



We have a little garden in our back yard. This year is didn't do that great so we are working on it so next summer it will be WONDERFUL. This is a few-week-long project because the kids and I work on it every now and then when they get home from school. First off we pulled out a huge raspberry bush that was in the center of it. It produced some raspberries last year, but not enough to justify it taking up so much room. We are also digging and doubling it in size. Seth and Caleb love the dirt. In fact, Seth can't walk by our garden now without at least touching or sitting in the dirt for a second. He talks about how he wants to be an archeologist when he grows up ("but one that wears a clown suit as he digs"). With his love of dirt and being dirty... that may just be a good fit.
