The Adventures of 'The Kidds'

I received a magazine in the mail earlier this month from Lowe’s that saved $10 on a $50 purchase. Since we had a large “mole hill” in the yard where the geo was put in, I knew we needed grass seed, so to spend the additional $$ to save the $10 I bought some plants for the garden. I got a few pepper plants, an acorn squash plant and some cilantro & basil. Its going to rain tomorrow so I decided I should plant some seeds and some of the plants I got today. So I planted 2 of the bell peppers that I got today. I also planted some sun flowers that Paul bought, that will make a nice wall of flowers behind the pool. I also planted 2 rows of snap peas in the edge of the garden. Now I just need to plant some of the tomatoes we started from seed, and then the squash and other peppers I haven’t planted yet. More updates to come..

So Paul and I spent yesterday planting in the garden. We planted 2 rows of beans, and left room so we could plant 2 more rows in 2 or 3 weeks, so we can stretch out the harvest time of the beans. We planted 2 different kinds of beans so we will see what we get. We also planted the carrots that we had started from seed a few weeks ago, in pots, along with the squash and zucchini, and the 2 pumpkins that Paul started. We will plant some more stuff in the next few weeks, but we will have to get some more seed first, and then we will probably plant some corn, and Corrine wants some snap peas. But the garden has been officially started, which is great, since it has been raining a little today, and should continue for the next few days, so that will be a good soaking of the garden.
