Our garden is in the ground.

Sunday we made it official.... we are gardeners. We planted our red and purple peppers, 4 types of tomatoes (i love tomatoes), onions, squash, zucchini, and beans.



It will be interesting to see how things work out. We amended the soil with some gardening soil because a lot of what we have is clay. It would be great to grow enough to eat tomatoes for breakfast like you eat a grapefruit! Carrie did a great job of laying out the garden. She read that you have to put the tall growing stuff in the back so you don't block the sun from the stuff that grows lower. Carrie is a real champion. I even bought her a belt that she wears... it says that she is the champ. Sometimes she will walk around with it held in both hands over her head.
