Our Garden (4/10 Update)

So we've wanted to have a garden for a while. Our dilemma has been that we kill things. Every time. 

We decided to give it a whirl and pray that something would happen for the kids' sake! ha!

Luke helping me plant the tomato seeds

Watering the seeds

They actually started to sprout!!! Thank you Jesus!!

Jonathan built garden beds with scrap wood that we had. 

At about 2 weeks in Parker got into Luke's room and dumped two of the pots of tomato plants. Luke was pretty devastated and I was trying to hide my devastation! :) They were completely upside down so I tried my best to try to scoop everything up and flip them fast. The sprouts were covered now and we hoped that they would be strong enough to poke through yet again. 

And they did it!!

Jonathan planted carrots, lettuce, spinach, green onions in this little garden bed. 

Jonathan also constructed a cage/netting to protect the seeds and plants. 

The tall garden bed will have snow peas, okra, corn and tomatoes. 

I hope this works!! haha!
