It's carrot picking time in Auntie Jessica's garden so the boys next door invited the girls over to help with the crop. The kids had SO much fun picking carrots right out of the ground, rinsing them off with the hose, and eating them on the spot.
Auntie taught the girls how to grab the stem close to the ground, wiggle it around and pull!
Lissy was so proud of herself.
Riley found a little cluster of carrots and pulled out a handful at once.
If I wasn't such a poor gardener, and by poor I mean the kind of gardener who forgets to water her plants, we would definitely plant a garden of our own. So instead, I'll just send the girls over and let Auntie take advantage of the three additional child laborers when her crop is ready to pick. They work for carrots.....and the occassional jellybean which was used to bribe them all into standing still for a picture!
