Gardening

A couple of weeks ago, we started our major landscaping project. Matt completely ripped up our backyard, leveled it off, and planted grass seed. We are really looking forward to having a nice backyard instead of a bumpy field of weeds that we used to have. Since we started from scratch, we decided to put in a little garden. The girls loved gardening (read: playing in the dirt) and are excited about the idea of harvesting the veggies and strawberries we planted!

Digging holes for the strawberry plants.

Laurel loved the dirt!

Erika asks every day if we can go pick the strawberries from the garden. She has a few more weeks to wait!

Helping Daddy water.

Planting some zucchini seeds.

Every time Erika pushed the seed into the mound of dirt, she made this little "whoop" sound.....it was too cute!
