Our Garden???


Yes, it's true, my husband has finally gone crazy! He has been so excited to plant a garden ever since we moved, but with the craziness of the past few months, he just finally got around to it. He insists that if we do cool-weather vegetables and cover them up when there is a threat of frost, they should be fine. Now, the weather has been absolutely perfect (82 degrees today, as a matter of fact), so he is probably right. But who thinks of gardening with the coming of winter? I guess that's one of the perks of living in the mild winter climate of southern Utah. Who knows--maybe we will be having fresh garden peas and carrots for Thanksgiving!




The kids love to help plant the garden. I don't know if it's because they love to play in the dirt, or if they really enjoy watching their hard work turn into something. Maybe it's a little of both!
