gardening.

...gardening...
So tonight for FHE my family and I made a trip to get some plants for our garden...it isn't much since when we moved to our house that we are in now my dad made it known that he DID NOT want a garden. So needless to say we didn't make a spot for one. Well after a few years of living here he changed his mind, so for the last few we have been planting our so called garden in spots of our flower beds. Sounds kinda tacky but it works I guess. No one ever really sees our backyard anyway. Last year our garden completely failed due to a crazy windstorm that basically ripped everything out of the ground. The only survivors were a few pumpkins and one of our crook neck squash plants. This year we changed our strategy and moved where our garden is...it now has the fence to help protect it, so we'll see how it goes. We (being my Dad, Mom, Kev, Page, and I) bought crook neck squash, tomatoes, green peppers, cucumbers, and jalepenos and got them planted. It was suprisingly a lot of fun, unfortunately we couldn't find any zucchini plants so we still need to go get one of those and we will be all set for summer :) We ended our fantastic FHE with Cafe Rio tostadas....YUM!
