Vegetable garden

So after so much success last weekend with our fruit patch (which the deer have gotten into...grrr), I thought we would get our vegetable garden planted this Saturday. It wasn't nearly as crazy. Well, we have three rows of corn planted, two double rows of peas planted, and a half a row of onion plants. So we are maybe almost half done. We still have some tomato plants, carrots, beans, zuccini, and potatoes.
We did portion off a little bit of dirt for the girls to dig in so they don't dig up our seeds. And Karla planted two corn seeds. She was excited to help dad plant the corn.
Thinking on potatoes--we went out the Grandma and Grandpa Cooks to get seed potatoes and had a great visit. It was so good to see them, but we forgot to go out and get the potatoes. Oops!!
Now as for having a great weekend--and no pictures. I have misplaced my memory card and didn't realize it until I went to take pictures. So no great shots. I am hoping to find it today as I clean. If not, I will have to go pick up a new one. C'est la Vie.

Very cool! Need to get unto gardening. I'm just not a green thumb lol! I helped my dad out in the garden but really never learned much about it. I would weed and water that's it. When Robert get the chance he will be tilling up the yard so we can put grass and put ceyenne pepper sprinkled on the grass so the dog doesn't poop or dig in the yard this year again. Justin can play outside in the grass. Hope you are doing good with the pregnancy and the family is doing good as well.
