This is the first home we’ve had where we’re really able to put energy into gardening and planting flowers.
And, that’s a bit redundant, because when I say gardening, I mean planting flowers…not vegetables.
We have a great area in the front of our house that is just perfect for planting flowers.
We also have great neighbors who are planting flowers in the front of their homes as well.
The kids, especially our two oldest girls, have been so eager to help their daddy work in the yard, cleaning weeds and planting a little flower garden.
Today they went with him to Home Depot to pick out some annuals and buy some gardening tools.
They helped to place these beauties in just the right spots and then watered them after they were all done.
Will and Jenny also got in on the gardening action by planting sunflower seeds on the side.
I am absolutely loving the community of living on post that we’re already experiencing.
Planting flowers to make our front yard welcoming and hospitable to our neighbors in the community is a part of that.
