Look at our Garden Grow

We finally live at a house with a big back yard, which means we were able to put in a vegetable garden this year!  Thanks to my extra-crafty husband, we now have two beautiful garden beds complete with fences and gates to protect against little garden-eating critters (and our two curious pugs and one curious daughter!). 

This year we planted corn, carrots, cucumbers, lettuce, beans, potatoes, peas and tomatoes.  Not everything is doing great, but most of it is doing pretty well.  We have even had enough cherry tomatoes and cucumbers to have two garden salads with!  Yay!  Nothing quite like veggies fresh out of your own garden.  Bella also loves helping in the garden.  She helped create it, helped plant the seeds, and now loves to go and look for vegetables that are ready to pick!  What a good little helper. 

The start of our garden!

Taking a break-digging is hard work!

Vegetables are growing!

Cherry Tomatoes growing like crazy!

It has been quite a little adventure for our family, and I'm so proud to have our own little garden to tend to!
