little helpers

This picture says it all....the tiller was broken/in the shop, we tilled the garden by hand. Surprisingly my back didn't hurt afterwards(thank you, Jilian Michaels dvd). We had lots of fun. Every 30 seconds the boys thought they needed a different tool. Halfway thru, they were off playing in the sandbox. So then it was just Dad & I. Anyway, we've got some great looking tomato plants & pepper plants planted. My herb garden has been weeded & mulched. Benjamin remembered when we put down newspapers last year as weed block. He reminded Papa to get some newspapers this time to help distract the ants in the garden. I love the funny things he says.
