The garden's in!

We FINALLY got our summer garden in! We had to hold off because Miss Scout liked to dig, so we are actually late to the game, but we got it done! And we've got the sore muscles and sunburns to prove it.
Here it is before. Try not to judge.

yuck




digging wonderland for our backyard guest

And here it is now.

ahhhh yeah!

We've got two cherry tomatoes, one celebrity tomato, three types of peppers (who likes jalapeno jelly?), one cilantro, one basil and one curly-leaf parsley for the butterflies. We'll add some onions and I'd like to add some New Guinea impatiens for some color, and also for the butterflies.

In other backyard notes, we were able to save the chinese wisteria that Scout decided to use as a chew toy. So we've got that goin for us, which is nice...kinda like Carl Spackler and the Dalai Lama.

We'll keep you posted on the veggies. Hopefully we'll have a bountiful crop this year!
