"Bring Your Own Hoe" DeMille FHE
Chris' grandpa owns a couple of acres behind our house that he planted in corn and potatoes. He SO wants to teach the younger generation self-reliance and hard work which he is an amazing example of. Chris kinda got elected to be in charge of the weeding and decided that one person weeding an acre garden was just not going to happen so he enlisted the help of the whole extended family. Last Night we had an extended family FHE. Chris called it the "Bring Your Own Hoe" night. Of course it caught on and everyone called it that, even his grandpa. We had a great turnout, we got all the weeding done, the kids worked a little and played a lot and then we ended with the "official" DeMille food - watermelon.
Especially Abigail...she could ride it all day! Allison in Grandpa's swing.

That really is a great principle isn't it? Mike and I are attempting our first garden ever, and everything but our cucumbers came up... Are plot is small and I can't imagine weeding anything bigger!
