The Garden

Above is a picture of the garden, two weeks after it was planted!

Well, a couple of Saturdays ago....Anna and I stood in the driveway saying we'd love to have a garden! Gardening would be so much fun and we'd love to have lots of veggies, about 2 minutes later they husbands are on the phones calling around about renting a tiller. Within 2 hours.....the backyard, a 20x16 ft section to be exact, was being tilled! Eric, was the man behind the tiller. Praise God for him...that was some hard work!

Not once, not twice but three times over he tilled the area up for the garden! The kids loved helping, they weeded and did their share of digging the garden! Brittany and Tyler joined us in the afternoon, we enjoyed a great time of friends and fellowship and as always, good food! Then later that evening, the boys went to return the tiller! The girls had a great time again, of fellowship.....meanwhile the boys decided to buy all of the plants and seeds we needed for the garden and surprised us with all of them when they came back! So....the next day, Mother's Day, we all planted everything! It is a Mother's Day I'll remember forever.

So, as friends and family for the past two weeks we've been watering and caring for this garden. Giving it a lot of attention..we've even prayed for it! <3 We're excited to see what God does with our garden, we of course pray that its plentiful and helps save as much as our coupons at the grocery!
