My garden

Whew, sorry for the last post. I was just having a moment. Now I have vented and I'm good again.
Time for a happy, upbeat post don't you think?
This post is dedicated to my garden. Bushels of tomatoes, dozens of ears of corn, carrots, potatoes, squash coming out our ears, more pumpkins that we know what to do with.....my garden has made me very happy this year.
Early spring garden




The cows. Oreo, Jefe, Bessy, Crazy Cora, and Lucky Star. They were eying the garden all year. My biggest fear was that they would find there way into it.


Growing like a weed (both the garden and Weston).


A view of our house and garden from Jason's dad's house.

Some of our pumpkins grew through the fence into the cow pasture. The cows left them alone for a long time and we thought they were good until a few weeks ago when they suddenly discovered they were yummy. I saved most of the pumpkins but the vines disappeared faster than you can say "Moo".


First day of school for Wyatt and Owen. Jake and Weston did not want to be in the shot.


First day of school for Millie (kindergarten started a week later). Jake once again did not want his picture taken.


 So, thank you garden. It's been another great year. I now have quarts and quarts of spaghetti sauce, bags of freezer corn, and lots more yummy stuff we are still enjoying fresh.
