As Ye Sow, So Shall Ye Reap...

This Saturday we swapped our weekly outing for some good old dirt under the fingernails. We planted our annual garden...well... semi-annual anyway. We did skip last year.

This year we've expanded our pots to include square-foot garden boxes. All our neighbors have had huge success with them, so we thought we'd give it a try. This also allows us to try a few new things.

Arnold built our boxes and got everything ready to go.

I did all the planting...big mistake that I'm now paying for, as I'm up in the middle of the night unable to sleep with a swollen face and burning sinus's...but I digress.

We have zucchini, yellow squash, cucumbers and red peppers in the boxes.

In the pots we have tomatoes, basil, chives, and cilantro.

Reese is already excited about helping with the watering process! She's such a big helper these days! Stay tuned in a few months for harvesting.
