Our GARDEN...







This spring I decided that I wanted to do a garden. In the 14 years we have been married we have never done one and have wanted to do one. I pulled out a part of our back yards lawn to put it in. Our neighbor Gene came over with his tiller to help me put it in and he started to till it up but the tiller couldn't get through the grass. He said we would have to hand dig it out. I hand pulled out a 15 foot by 30 foot space of our lawn that the root system was almost 8 inches THICK!!! It took me about 2 days to get it all ready for Gene to come back over with the tiller to till it all under.

After all the preparation time it was planting time. We planted Cucumbers, 6 cherry tomato plants with 3 different types, Radishes, Carrots, Peas, Green Beans, Zucini, Yellow Summer Squash, Watermelon, Cantaloupe, Pumpkins 2 different kinds, and Sunflowers. Our garden has been so much fun not only for me but also the kids. They have really loved going out and finding what is coming up. Once the pumpkins came in they took over a lot of the garden! We didn't get any cantaloupe or watermellon but everything else did great. Next year I will for sure do more PEAS and Cucumbers!!! Those have been a favorite with everyone.

Here are a few pictures of the kids in the garden with some of our crop.

Lots of love to you all and hope everyone enjoyed their gardens too!!!
