Garden Updates...

Well I haven't planted any of my plants outdoors yet. The weather is still nasty and there are frost dangers. I don't want to waste all my work by planting them too early so I have a jungle in my house. My tomato plants are all blossoming so I will have early tomato's YAY! Emily and I planted squash, cucumbers, melons, zucchini and pumpkins the other day. They've all sprouted except the melons. We bought the dirt for our garden beds last Sunday so as soon as it stops raining I can fill the garden beds up :) I borrowed a book on composting at the library today and I'm going to educate myself so I don't have to buy fertilizer and dirt again. Next year I should be a pro! I think I even have Chris talked into building me a greenhouse :) This garden business is so much fun. All our plants are heirlooms so we'll be saving our seeds for next year. We are selling our extra plants to help with the cost of all this gardening I've been doing. I just can't wait to get everything outside!
This is my bedroom window...
We already have a blackberry... it's green now but it will be black when it's ripe.

Wow! That looks like fun! I think I waited too long here! It's already been 95 degrees!
