Green Thumbs Up



 Matthew loves being outside tending to his garden.  He's like his dad in that he loves to play in the dirt, but he's like his momma in that when it comes to worms he says, 'Ewww...orm (worm)....gusting (disgusting)'.  See last picture.  Not sure why he plugs his nose when he see's them, but it's cute.  I think I may have a little green thumb in the  making!

We planted, lettuce, green beans, cucumbers, thai chili peppers, strawberries and TONS of tomatoes.  (Hubby thinks we're going to can them and make sauce,etc.  We'll see how that turns out.)  I wish we had more room to plant more veggies!  Nothing like growing your own fresh food.  We have two neighbors who are also planting gardens (about the same size) so I'm sure we will be sharing our bounty with everyone. 

What's in your garden??
