~~Garden Boxes for Mother's Day~~

I dropped a subtle little hint two Sunday's ago that I would sure like a couple of garden boxes and a gift certificate to fill them for Mother's day! I even found how to build them and put the instructions on the counter, just in case "someone" might be interested in making them.

My Mother's Day wish came true!!!!

Matt built me two boxes and I went today to use my gift certificate at the USU greenhouse.

Oh what joy that playing in the dirt can do for your soul!!!

I think the hardest part what trying to determine what kind of dirt to buy! As you can see we got quite a mixture. Landon dug little trenches in the dirt ...and then we made sure they were level before filling with dirt.

Aren't they so pretty?

The newspaper to help with weed control --- and it's "going GREEN" biodegradable friendly.

Filled to the brim! Clover is going a little nuts because we mixed in manure with the dirt. ewwwww!!!!

First we transplanted Landon and Tanner peas that they started in little cups. Aren't they so cute? They've already doubled since taking this picture on Saturday.

Today we bought and planted some tomatoes, cucumbers, squash and one little cilantro plant. :)

Thanks Matthew and boys!!!

I love my garden boxes!!!
