Garden update

Holy cow, Martha! You told me these things would take 6 weeks to grow enough to be planted outside. This picture was exactly one week from the night that we planted them. The corn is exploding, the zucchini, watermelon, and tomatoes are doing well, and the flowers, well, they are yet to make an appearance, but I'm not giving up! So I have already been begging for spring to arrive, now I really need it to stop snowing in April for crying out loud. I'm going to be picking corn on the cob right off of our table! The boys are loving this little project, though. Every morning they jump up on the table to see what has happened over night. It really is incredible.

That is INCREDIBLE! I remember seeing the post when you planted them...
I hear ya on the snow! You know the old rhyme/song "Rain, Rain go away?" Well, for Idahoans..."Snow, snow go, go GO!!!"
I think you give Martha Stewart a run for her money!
P.S. I love your business pictures with the little girls in tutus and leg warmers...I hope you don't mind a copy-cat:) It was just too cute not to try...

So i have to agree on the snow with you i can't wait until the boys can go out and play. I love you little garden idea I should show my mom cause her and Trey love doing the garden together. By the way you should move back to Malad so Brevin and Trey can go to Kindergarden together just a thought :)

Holy! I don't think they were even up on Friday were they? They still had the cover on them. Wow! What a fun, educational project.

That is such a cute idea. I can't believe that they grew that much in a week. Teagan and I want to make a garden this summer and I have never planted a garden so I know who to come to for tips. Love ya and miss you guys. Kesler looks so big in this pictures.
