Our back yard has a pretty good slope to it, which means that anytime it rains, any dirt that isn't packed down gets washed away. That's why we haven't attempted to make a little garden at this house yet. But I had a gift card from Home Depot (thanks, Mom and Dad!) and a hair up my butt to give the girls something to do this summer, so I decided we'd build a garden.
It was a lot bigger project than I planned, but I want it to stay put for a while so I took the time to actually plan (imagine that!)
It's been a couple of weeks in the making, but I think we're finally ready to plant.
With some assistance from my little helpers, we moved a yard of dirt into the 8' x 4' x 2' raised bed (it's only 12" up on the shallow side).
Now we just need to plant some seeds and watch them grow!
To celebrate, we went and got ice cream!
