How do you get boys out in their gardens to weed and harvest? Competition. Rather, the boys came up with the competition, as they turn everything into a competition. OH, and there’s money involved.

First, we have the largest cucumber competition. Rex wins.

Then we have the most green beans collected in 7 minutes. Morris picks 70, Jude picks 75, and Rex wins with 79.

Then, we have the longest green bean. Rex and Jude tie. 

Morris is fine. Rex gets $11 (or more. I can’t remember. I just needed them to get it done!).
