The boys now have a garden. I didn't provide the garden- I am blaming my neighbor for most of it. She bought the boys a sunflower seed that they planted, then brought them down a tomato plant. A week or so later they came home from her house with an aloe plant, and now... we have a garden. I should probably mention that I have never, ever kept anything alive in my house. How the kids have survived this long is a miracle (I bet it has something to do with how they tell me that they are hungry).
A few days ago, Steve came home from Home Depot with watermelon seeds for the boys. Yup, you read that right -watermelon seeds in the middle of the desert. I decided then that I needed to document this whole thing myself :-)
I am posting a picture to prove that these plants are actually alive right now. We'll see how they're doing next week.
