First Harvest

We have been neglecting our garden lately and haven't even weeded it. It is good thing it has rained a lot or we might not have even had a garden left.

So, I drag my big bottom and my children to my neglected garden this morning. We spent about an hour and half weeding it. That's about how long it took baby to say "that is enough of that!" (or maybe it was just my worn out stomache mucles protesting but I would rather blame it on the baby ;) )

And then we spent about 15 minutes harvesting sweet green peas. The kids were chanting "One for me, one for the bag". It is just a good thing our garden is organinc so they weren't eating pesticides :D.

Sonja wanted to eat everyone she picked. She has always been a big veggie eater.

So now as a reward because it must be a law, when you are done working in the garden you are suppose to play in the water.

It is only 72 degrees with a slight breeze and it is well water straight out of the ground but they don't care. After all, it is the first time to play in the water all year.
