Our First Garden Pick

When the girls and I went out to check on the garden the other day we saw a large zucchini!  Now there are several zucchini and yellow squash and tomatoes growing, just not any that are large enough to pick. 

 

 

This one was!  Here is a picture of it still on the vine!

 

 

We picked the zucchini on Tuesday and cooked it for supper!  It was really good.  The girls really liked the fact that they helped to plant and grow what we were eating!

Our Family Garden

My husband and I have been living in this house for going on 7 years and have only ever planted grass.

Finally this year we have started our very own garden. Yay! I am so excited!
This is a family project. Our girls really loved helping with the planting and now with the watering. We started the garden Easter weekend and already have plants coming up from our seeds we planted.

We did have a little mole decide he wanted to travel through and distroyed a few of our plants but we took care of him.


I love seeing the girls faces when we go out and there is a new plant growing. They are really excited because they helped plant everything. I can not wait until we actually get to start picking the vegetables that we grew.
The girls are REALLY going to love that!
