Cheney's Garden

We have always wanted to have a small garden. Homegrown tomatoes taste so good!! Because we have so many trees, it really hasn't been possible. Last Spring, a bad storm twisted up one of our trees and we had to cut it down. I have been trying to figure out what to do with that area. I finally convinced Billy that we needed a garden, so he constructed a raised area, had dirt delivered, and today the plants were planted. Last night at Home Depot, Cheney was insisting on buying potato plants! I finally convinced him to grow tomatoes, strawberries, watermelon and peppers. He threw in a package of sweet corn seeds for good measure. Today was planting day!! Stay tuned to see our garden grow...hopefully we can keep the squirrels away from the tomatoes!!!

We would have a garden... but I would kill it all really quickly. Maybe there will be some tomatoes soon... Boogs loves Tommy-toes!
