An Elf Garden

 
In my backyard I have a very deep flower bed with absolutely nothing growing!  The bonus is it has been a great digging space for my four year old. He can dig and dig and dig  and I don’t care if it’s not a beautiful thing. Well  truthfully it’s a really unattractive thing! But I have been [...]
