How did your Garden grow?

This was our first year planting a garden. I will be the first to admit that not one member in our family has a green thumb. But we thought that we would give it a try mostly so the kids can have fun playing in the dirt.

So this garden season we managed to grow 3 strawberries, 4 green beans, a few tulips, some smashed basil and tons of weeds. I think it was a success.

The kids loved seeing the fruit of their labors. But now since all our plants are empty Lily and Ducati just enjoyed themselves playing in the mud.
 Cati more than Lily. Lily has this fear that a bug will go on her toes so she's very hesitate when it comes to her toes being exposed. So she just watched from the grass while Cati aerated the garden.
Mike and I laughed that if every year the kids plant a garden the same way that they will be the most confused gardeners ever! We can hear Cati saying, "What's compost?
