…gets really dirty together?

Today the boys helped James put compost in the front flower beds.dsc_2216-small

They had fun taking the compost and putting it in the wagon with their shovels.

And they helped with spreading it around the flowers.

While they did that, I weeded. We have a bumper crop of wild garlic I’m trying to get rid of.  And I took pictures. :)   Here’s a close up of some of the flowers (the tulips are new, not what I expected when I bought them, but I really like them…seriously, I bought a pack on clearance that was a mix of  3 types of bulbs, purple, white and another color. I think these are them…or maybe we’ve had them and I just forgot? Possible too! There are still some comeing  up, so we’ll see.).

They open wide in the warmth of the day and are all yellow on the inside.  And we have my spring favorites below.
