Warning: This post contains 14 pictures! :) 
Mackenzie had her school program today, and she chose to wear a dress. I loved the way she looked from the back, still in her dress and pigtails, watering the garden!
Kinda makes me think of a little pioneer girl. (Except she's using a water hose instead of carrying a bucket full of water from the nearby stream. Ha.) :)
Complete with the bare feet!
This picture gives you an idea of how our garden is doing. We are excited about it! We've even eaten three salads picked right out of the garden this week.
The two kiddos.
Mackenzie offering Josiah a turn with the water hose. (Aaaww.)
Water the garden? What? I wanted to water Mackenzie, Mom! (She actually loved it!)
Josiah watering the garden...in a gun-like fashion.
They are great little helpers.
I love the water droplets spraying in the air in this picture.
Our two garden boxes...growing well, so far!
The nest in our maple tree. We have totally enjoyed watching the Momma bird build her nest this week. As of right now, there are no eggs in the nest. I'll keep you posted!
This is a random pic of our back yard, just to give you an idea of how GREEN it is!
Another view of the back yard...we're so happy that we have grass growing now! The kids are able to play in the yard without getting so muddy, and the yard is much more level, too. We had dirt brought in and the yard seeded a couple months ago. We are so thankful for the grass and user-friendly space! :)

I'm so impressed with your yard and garden! Wow! I love seeing Mackenzie in her little dress. She sure does look like a little pioneer girl!
Great garden! And, I can totally appreciate the "green"-North Carolina has red clay dirt and unless you put down sod, you can't let your kids out to play without them being stained or muddy. Yay for green backyards!
Yay for green grass in your backyard. I know you must be thrilled about that with all the early spring prep that took place. Also, I'm amazed at how your garden and how great everything is growing in already. If you ever run into the problem of harvesting more than you can eat, you can add JJ and I to the receiving list. :)
Great garden boxes! I'm very impressed. Michael will be jealous, as he hasn't had time to plant much in ours this year. Guess there's still time!
