The Garden Is In (well, almost)

Today I am linking up at The Homestead Barn Hop at Homestead Revival.





Saturday Mark finished tilling our garden. Whew! He had a job, that's for sure. I supported him in his hard job by sitting in my swing and blowing kisses when he looked my way.

Just kidding. Well, I did do a little of that. I mean, if you are going to have a good-looking husband you might as well sit and watch him while he works, right?


While he was tilling I did normal house stuff and Abbie and I went and purchased the plants and seeds we needed. I had unusual self-control when we walked into the feed store. They had just gotten an order in of fluffy chicks. And I did not buy even one! Mainly because our teenage chicks are eating us out of house and home and not supplying a single egg. Hmmmm, sounds like some boys I know.

Again, just kidding. Well, not about the eating us out of house and home. They are doing that. But, those boys worked hard this weekend. While Mark was tilling they did all kinds of yard stuff and then after church yesterday they pretty much put the garden in themselves. I helped plant, but they did lots of the "hard work" Mark tilled the pepper bed and we planted until we literally ran out of room.

We have got to find a place to put our canteloupes and then we will be done!
