Garden and Farming Dreams

Michael and I have always dreamt of owning land and having a little farm and a large garden.

We are starting to get a little impatient with this dream.

Right now, we are following another dream related to Michael's career so our farm/land dream is on hold.  Therefore, this weekend, we decided to get creative with what we have.  We built a large garden in our back yard.  We worked outside all day Saturday, and the four of us could not have been happier.  I love working along side each other.  I love that we were together all day with no distractions, no complaints, and no arguments.  Sometimes we talked, and sometimes we were just quiet.  It was bliss.




Our berry bushes!  We had seven blueberry bushes already on the other side of the house.  With these, we have 13 berry bushes (these are blackberry and raspberry).  


My cute view while doing dishes.  


Then, we started some serious planting.  


 Declan's favorite seed, carrots.  He woke up from nap, and the first thing he said was, "Can we plant my carrots now?"

 The winner of the largest seed goes to green beans.  
 Miley's favorite seed, watermelon.

It was our first "farming" experience together for now.
