Spring is singing our names...
In late March, when Easter happened (that still seems weird to me) the spring time sprites left little Ree a basket full of gardening tools and seed packets.
And I am pretty sure we are just about ready to put them all to good use?... No, we ARE ready, it is the weather we are waiting on.
The weather has been especially freaky here in the Northwest. Bright and sunny with the temperatures in the 70's, then near freezing and almost snowing. I have been weary of putting precious little seeds in the ground, as I fear they may not be able to handle this roller-coaster-weather-ride.
But Billy is going to go head and build our little one his very first garden bed this weekend--for when the weather shapes up.
Ree is getting a head start. He made a little start to put into the bed once the weather gets stable enough. He poked his tiny little finger in to the soil, then dropped his seed in (am not sure exactly what he planted) and pinched a bit of dirt over the top of it... Now, we just wait and see just who is in there. and just when we can get to planting.

Oh how fun! I really wanted a vegetable garden this year, but haven't been able to get on top of it. But there is still time for flowers! The kids are aching to plant seeds, I just don't have any place to put them! Maybe this weekend...
