I recently spent 3 days at Stake Youth Conference in Flagstaff, AZ. It was SO cold. I’m such a desert rat! My group made it so much easier for me to be away from home.
They were such great kids. We never had a single problem. Phew! Here’s my group…
While I was gone, my sweet hubby and kiddos plotted my birthday present.
When I got home, I was met by the most excited little family.
Next, they led me through the house to a new set of knives that I’ve been wanting…
Next, they led me to what they’d spent a ton of time on…
Something I’ve been wanting for a LONG time… A GARDEN BOX PLANTER!
So we spent last weekend planting our very first family garden. We planted yellow squash, banana squash, snap beans, green peppers, cucumbers, peas, carrots, lettuce, cantaloupe, and zucchini.
Chandler also wanted corn…
Shelby wanted watermelons…
Tatum wanted strawberries…
And Harley wanted tomatoes, so we planted 2 plants in separate pots…
We also have another planter that we’ve previously planted flowers in. This time, we used it for things like rosemary, jalapeno, oregano, cilantro, green onions, and sunflowers. While most of these things we planted were from seed, there were a few that were transplants. Don’t they look cute?

I am so excited for our little garden to grow! I’ll keep you posted on how it goes…
