Long Weekend Gardening

We spent the long weekend at home trying to get a long list of "to-dos" done. I'm happy to report that it was all completed and because of the gorgeous weather, we were able to get all our gardening done too!

Adding some compost to the front garden.
Working together.
In the backyard we planted cucumbers, green peppers and tomatoes to go along with the peas and carrots we planted earlier in the spring.
The boys really like to help water but until the plants get a bit bigger, I've been doing most of it on my own.
They start out so gently and then end up DUMPING water on the poor, small plants.
Or, they try so hard to be gentle and don't tip the watering can enough to make much water come out, haha.
Logan helps with the planting.
Jacob get SO dirty playing outside.
:)
The boys eventually got bored and played with the slide in the backyard.

They like to put that bucket at the end and roll their balls down the slide.
