The Beginning of Something Great

And doing a lot of this:

And buying a bunch of these:

And doing some of this:

And some of that:

Here's the beginning of something great...

Voila!

We're pretty excited to have an actual garden this year.

(No more tomato plants in pots that don't grow on a balcony. Thank goodness!)

Gardens are one of my favorite things about summer.

There's nothing better than fresh fruits and veggies from your own backyard!

Here's what we've got going:

All sorts of tomatoes

(Better Boy, Bush Early Girl, Celebrity, Roma, Cherry, and Bonnie Grape)

2 Red Bell Peppers

3 Yellow Bell Peppers

3 Cucumbers

All sorts of squash

(Spaghetti, Buttercup, Butternut, Crookneck, and 2 Summer)

7 Green Beans

2 Green Zucchini

2 Yellow Zucchini

2 Pumpkin

3 Blueberries

3 Raspberries

3 Strawberries

2 Bunching Onions

3 Basil

Thyme

Tarragon

Sage

Cilantro

Parsley

and

Steuia (Natural Sweetener)

We can't wait for this stuff to start coming in!

Oh and here was our little audience while we worked away all day:

(Too cute to resist!)
