Gardening Is The Life For Me

This year when we started our garden (twice because of the damn freeze), we decided we weren't going to go as big as we did last year. It was a lot of work and my hubby wasn't too happy with everyone not pitching in, but helping themselves to the fruits (or veggies in this case) of our labor.

So we went small and only planted what we really love to eat.

Green beans, carrots, yellow squash, peppers and watermelon.

And we love it.

We love that we can wander out back and see that we're actually getting the hang of this gardening thing. We actually have green thumbs!

Roo loves it too.

She's a big help. She'll put her gardening boots on, grab her shovel and dig away.

Sure, she tends to step on the plants, but she's trying.

In fact, we all love it, even Turtle.

(Look, a family picture... kinda.)

Hopefully when they get older they'll still enjoy it.
