Tree Fort Garden gets new life

This morning Grandma Carol came over to help us plant the Tree Fort Garden. The girls enjoyed learning how to dig the holes for the plants and mixing the soil with really good soil. They also learned how to massage the roots after taking them out of the pots. Em was great at digging the holes and Katelyn was wonderful at making sure the river rocks were laid out properly.

Next phase will be more plants and lawn ornaments. . . . . maybe a water feature????
