Guess what? This weekend, I stumbled upon something so charming it nearly made my heart skip a beat – a darling raised garden bed just for Braxton! Now, before we dive into this garden of delights, let's chat about my Saturday night ritual.

So, every Saturday, while Braxton's off having a blast at Grammy & Grumpy's, I indulge in a little "me" time. Picture this: a steamy hot bath, my favorite calming bubble bath, and a dash of melatonin to whisk me off to dreamland – well, after I cozy up on the couch for a non-cartoon binge. (Though, I'll admit, Shrek and Tangled have made a cameo or two on these solo nights!)

Come Sunday morning, I'm up at the crack of dawn, ready to take on the world – or at least Walmart. There's something magical about wandering through those almost empty aisles early in the morning, isn't there? It's like the world's your oyster; every aisle is a new adventure. And who knew? Walmart at dawn has become my latest passion project.

Now, let's get to the heart of the story—the super cute raised garden bed that serendipity placed in my path in the garden section while I was on the hunt for seed-starting supplies. With a price tag under $50, it was a no-brainer. I mean, I'd been dreaming up ways to introduce Braxton to the joys of gardening, and this little gem was the perfect start. Simplicity is my new mantra, after all.

Constructed with love by my dad and Braxton, this garden bed wasn't just easy to assemble – it came with a chalkboard side! Can you imagine the fun? And though it's just 2ft tall, it's the cutest addition to our garden adventures. Braxton's already planning a floral extravaganza for this summer, and I'm here for it!

For those who've caught the gardening bug, I've scoured Amazon and found a couple of similar gems that could also spark that creative flair in your little gardeners.

I've probably said this more times than I can count, but I am absolutely buzzing for summer and all the gardening escapades it brings. It's moments like these – simple, joyous, and shared with loved ones – that truly make life a beautiful DIY project, don't you think? Here's to creating more of these moments, one garden bed at a time. 🌱✨

Sending all the sunshine and inspiration your way,

Tiff 🌼
