Gardening again......

So when our plans changed for the weekend we did some work in the garden. We worked on getting the cages around the tomato plants, getting the drip system up and running, and pulling any weeds that needed pulled. The garden shouldn't have any problem getting the water it needs. We bought some different types of spraying watering sprayers for the corn and they seem like a good choice. The garden is getting bigger and thriving with all the attention that it is receiving.
There are several Tomato's that are already setting and some of the squash have already gotten blooms. The plants are getting stronger every day and shouldn't need as much babying that we are giving it in the beginning.
So far I have not seen any squirrels anywhere around so maybe there wont be any thieves to steel my green tomato's this year, but then again we have seen some deer in the distance so maybe they wont know that I planted anything this year.

Daddy's pants are hard to fill

Jacob decided that Daddy's pants would fit was he way wrong. Derek wear's a 40 inch inseam. Jacob wears a size 6 slim. I laughed so hard when he tryed them on and tryed to walk with them on.

The Garden

Derek, My dad Loyd and I got my garden planted. We planted 26 Tomato plants, 4 Cucumbers, 11 Green Peppers, 4 Jalapenos, 3 Watermelon, 3 Cantaloupe, 1 Honey Dew, 2 crookneck and 2 straight neck Squash, 2 Acorn Squash, 4 Pumpkins, 4 Zuc's and 3 rows of corn. Man were we busy.
The ground was really hard so we added 3 yards of compost to it and it seems like it's going to be a good garden. Derek used his new rototiller and got is all tilled up for us to plant. I cant wait till I can eat something from the garden. The kids are really excited about it also and keep asking if theres any tomato's yet. I only reply "just green ones" and they smile.
Now if we can get the grass planted then it will be all green around here instead of yellow.

All Moved in

Finally we brought the last of the stuff from the old house over. We now just live at one location again and very happy for that. Derek has started the 12X20 Shed that he is almost done building. My father and I got my garden planted(26 tomato plants, cucumbers, pumpkin's, watermelon, Honey dew, Cantalope, Green peppers, Jalapenos, Yellow squash, Acorn squash, Zuc's, I think I got them all). We will start painting the house next week if we can figure out what color to paint it. Now the boxes I walk into the other room look around at the boxes and the mess get over whelmed then walk back out. Man those boxes need to put them selves away for me. yeah right. The kids are loving the new house and so is Derek and I.
