The boys' garden

Owen and Davis have been wanting to plant a garden. All I can remember from our huge garden when I was little was all the weeding we had to do. So I have been putting them off, but in primary they learned how the prophet has said to plant a garden. And the primary is having a zucchini growing contest. So (because I hate yard work so much) I gave them the front flowerbed to have their garden in. This gets me out of the work of planting flowers and it also gives them a space of their own. They planted the zucchini and also some carrots. We'll see what grows, the neighbors dog has taken a liking to the cool dirt and makes his resting spot right on top of the carrots! But the boys worked very hard, and they check on their garden daily.
