Nixon Gardening 101

So we decided that we would try our hand at gardening this summer. So, we mapped out where we wanted it to be and went from there. One of our friend's dad let us borrow a tiller, so Jodie got to work. The next day, we got our rows mapped out and started planting. We decided to try beans, corn, peppers, zucchini, yellow squash, cucmbers, tomatoes, and some different kinds of lettuces. We had a great time planting, especially Sam. She was covered from head to toe with dirt (you should have seen the bath water later that night!). She loved planting the seeds with us and then covering them all up. After lunch, we decided to take the tiller back to Mr. Smith. I don't think we were in the car for more than 5 minutes before she passed out. I just love it when she plays herself to sleep!
