Our Garden

A lot of you have been blogging about your garden and all the fruits and vegetables you've gotten. We wanted to show you our garden and all that we got! We planted it back in May and we babied this thing. Everyday we were out there watering the plants when they needed it, noting each new growth, and making sure no weeds got in the way of our baby. We planted 2 tomato plants, 2 sweet peas, and 7 green pepper plants. After a week this happened to our first plant:We waited anxiously for our sweet peas but they died after about 2 weeks.

The hopes of the bell peppers were next. Matt went out one day and saw a little bell pepper growing and out of his excitement touched it and it fell off. We also noticed that a cat ate our 7th bell pepper plant.Finally after FOUR months we got our first tomato! It's about half the size of my finger. Now I get to harvest it! Salsa, canning, stew, tomato sauce, the possibilities are endless!Here's hopes for next year that we'll have more than just one tiny tomato!
