Planting a Garden

Last week for Family Home Evening we let the kids plant some flowers in our garden. They had a great time digging and playing in the dirt and Emma was really hands on in planting! Unfortunately, the flowers have already died! But, Jon did use some basil from our garden the other day in spaghetti and it tasted wonderful! Jon also planted a third rose bush in the backyard and it is doing very well. Emma loves when the roses bloom and I do too! What is prettier than a perfect pink rose? As the kids were planting, Derrick just kept running his fingers through the dirt...just to get dirty! (What a boy!)
