The boys really got into it & were great helpers. They helped with peas, zucchini, potatoes & peppers. Colton & cousin “I” had a really good time helping Papa water the potatoes after they were planted. Wyatt kept asking for a “safe spot” to do his own digging (approved by grandpa & grandma so he didn’t start digging up plants/seeds we had just planted). They had looked forward to helping all week & really had a blast!

By the time we were done planting, they were dirty from head to toe (isn’t that how little boys are supposed to be??!!) so we quickly rinsed off in the shower & headed to our next event of the evening – a campfire with friends.
We have some good friends that live a neighborhood over from ours & they had invited us to a grill out & fire that Friday evening. We passed on the grill out since the boys had their hearts set on helping out with the garden, but we swung by to enjoy the campfire & friends on our way home.
Our group of friends has kids all the same age, so they have a blast playing when we get together. The boys played their hearts out until it was dark enough for sparklers. They each got a chance to have one lighted sparkler & then we headed home, as it was way past bedtime at that point.
It was a jam-packed Friday evening full of nothing but fun!
