Taming the untame

Not Shane. Although, he could use some taming. hehe.

Taming the earth. Shane tilled the garden a few weeks ago.
I raked away the alfalfa weeds.
We had to reapeat this 3 times.
Last Friday, we planted it. We made the whole family help. Even Lilla.
She loved it!

Questen planted the potatoes. He helped haul away the weeds too!
My wish for him is to learn to be a good worker and this is a good start!
Good job, bud!
Violet planted some seeds but she loaded a whole wagon and pulled it to the dumpster for me.
All by herself! What a good girl!

They played too!
Good work guys!
It feels good to know that we will have fresh veggies in a few months to eat!

Oh man I can't wait to get my garden planted as well! You are so good to teach your kids how to work. Sometimes it feels like so much more work teaching them, than doing it yourself.... lol

Awesome family activity. It is so great for kids to see the whole process from start to finish. My kids loved our garden last year.
