Our Backyard Vegetable Garden

Spring marks the beginning of one of the highlights of our family life--the planting of our backyard vegetable garden.  We get catalogs all winter and fantasize about what we will put in the garden come spring.  Now that spring is officially here we have planted our garden for the second year.  


As usual I planted the staples.  My staples are Better Boy Tomatoes, Roma Tomatoes, Jalapeno Peppers, Zucchini Squash, Crookneck Squash, and Green Onions.  Butternut Squash and English Peas are new this year, due to needing these vegetables to make some of Emma's baby food.

Avery is already keeping an eye out for those rabbits.
