Our Garden

Every year we plant a garden, and every year it gets bigger. This year due to our weekends being over booked, I ended up planting the garden, and picking out the vegetables by myself, we usually do all this stuff together. yes we are one of "those" couples :) but I love it :)

As you may be able to see in the very back I planted four different kinds of tomato plants, I can never remember exactly what kind of plants I planted so I try to leave the label thingy in the ground, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. I've also got two jalapeno plants (for AJ, and salsa), a yellow pepper plant, bell pepper plant, onions, cucumbers, romaine lettuce, oregano, and basil. This is the first year we have planted onions, cucumbers, lettuce and oregano, see what I mean about our garden getting bigger every year, this year I just went all out. Really wanted to plant some melons, and strawberries, however with us moving sometime this year I didn't want to go way over board, and then I hear strawberries take a season before you get any. Can't wait till we have our own home!!! I'm super excited, I love going out to our garden and picking our veggies, plus we have everything to make a wonderful salad.

This is when our garden looks the best, with busy lives we seem to get behind on our weeding responsibilities.

A hobbie that I would like to learn is canning. We usually get tons of tomatoes and I would love to be able to can salsa.
