Tomato plants



I didn't have this picture when I posted about my tomato plants earlier, but this is the packet of seeds that I got. It is called the Burpee best in show tomato packet and it grows five different tomato plants. These are what they will look like if my plan is a success. Also I bought a packet of pattypan squash seeds today that should look like this when they grow. These are the "suppose to" pictures so I'll have to compare them to what actually comes out of my garden this summer. I can't wait!

Let your garden grow!


I couldn't help but share this picture since Carrie B. has started blogging about her veggie CSA for this year. My goal is to grow some of my own food this year. Clark is getting a tiller and I'm going to have a garden. This is a picture of the tomato plants that I have already started from seeds. So far they look pretty good. They will go into the ground in the middle of April. I'm not sure what plants I have because I bought a multi seed packet with five different varities of tomato seeds. All of the planets are unique though and not something you would normally find at the grocery store or a farmers market. One of the plants is a white cherry tomato called an Italian Ice tomato. I'm looking forward to seeing what different things I can grow. I also plan to grow a spineless orka and pattypan squash. I can't wait. I will certainly blog about things as they "grow" :)

The Grocery Game

I saw this on GMA this morning and I remember trying this before but it really didn't work for me at the time. Now that I'm home (at least for a couple more weeks) and have time to really work at it I thought I might try it again. Has anyone had success with this in the past or is still having success?

First Day at Church




Yesterday was Abbey's first time at church. She was such a good girl, sleeping the whole time. The little old ladies were ohhing and ahhing over her and her cousin, Courtney, would hardly let her go the whole service. Next week we are going to go to church with Clark's parents since they want to show off the new granddaughter and they are having a fellowship meal after the morning service. We have a lot of friends at their church and it will be a great time. Here are some pictures from her first day of church.

Mini Me...


This is Clark's nickname for Abbey and I have to admit, she is the spitting image of her daddy. Don't you think?
