Yeah! My garden is growing!

My garden got a late start this year because I made it bigger. Since I was digging out rocks, instead of planting seeds, it got planted around May. Around here, that's a pretty late start but it's starting to look great!

I planted tomatoes, onions, carrots, zucchini, green beans, yellow beans, jalapeno peppers (those were an accident, I meant to get bell peppers but still yummy), and russet potatoes. The potatoes were an afterthought. I finished planting everything I wanted to plant and had extra space, a rarity in year's past. The potatoes came up last week. Some things are still small; we had huge wind storms and then hail. Everything has been battered but a few weeks of nice weather has helped immensely.


Also, Juliet fell asleep on me after church. She still needs a nap but 1 o'clock church makes it hard to squeeze in a nap.


Other than that, I went to girl's camp last week and we had the best time. I was there from Wednesday to Saturday and the weather was great and the girls were too! Today I'm cleaning my house and doing a mountain of laundry! Yippee!
