Planting Flowers

The kids and I spent some time this afternoon planting some flower gifts. We had been given a gift certificate to NW Seed & Pet at our Adoption Shower, so I decided to buy mostly perennials so that we could have them for a long while. I bought them last Thursday, and finally got them in the ground today! The kids had a really good time, and we played for about an hour outside. It was certainly hot, but we had the water on to keep us cool. I also bought a few petunias to plant around the pretty sunflower plant that my MOMS Club members got for me. Hopefully they will perk up and get bigger soon!
