Farming, Fannies & Fun!

Cody's class has been learning about gardens and how flowers grow from seeds. Here is a picture from his class...at the bottom it says: Young Threes How Our Garden Grows! They got to make each phase of the plants growth: seeds, roots, stems, flowers, rain and sun.

Inspired by his garden picture, we decided to let Cody & Abby plant some things of their own. Today we planted basil, rosemary and peppers. In a few weeks, we will transplant them to our back porch garden. By the way, Clay custom built our plant holders...very nice!

Cody really got into the planting of the seeds. Abby was more interested in playing in the dirt and going outside to play in the water. I included a few pics of her playing on the back porch..she was in her bathing suit for a while, but then opted for skinny dipping. They played in their new pool and then laid down and watched TV together. They love spending time together, even if they are fighting most of the time. It was cute to capture them together and not fussing for once.

All in all, it was a great day of family fun. I'll be sure to post updates of the plants as they grow.
