Raised Garden

This past weekend, we worked on yet another fun project at our house...I love working on our house with Wes and Paige...really makes it our home!  So our drive way was kinda odd and got on our nerves.  We had the driveway and then a 15X4 ft grass space and then more pavement for a small patio.  We wanted something to go in that grass space.  So Wes decided to make a raised garden.  We will have a large garden in our side yard, but this will be perfect for me and Paige to take care of and let Wes handle the big garden!  So here is what we did:

 Notice the odd grass section??
   
Laying out the lumber to get started....Paige thought it was her balance beam!
Daddy hard at work
 It is huge!  We thought it was too high, but it is high enough where Paige cant climb in!
 Adding the support

 Paige's favorite part...filling it up with dirt!

 Finally full with dirt...now we need potting soil and something to plant!
 And here is our final product....we have onions, tomatoes, strawberries, squash, zucchini, and red green and orange bell peppers.

  I am so excited to be able to walk outside and pick out some fresh veggies!
