Garden!

Today we planted our garden! Mom and dad came over (with donuts!) and we got to planting. We started with a row of Sunflowers, then 2 types of sweet corn. After the corn we planted green beens and peas, regular carrots and "kalidoscope" carrots that are while, purple and deep red! We also planted tomatoes, beets, yellow and butternut squash, onions and of couse pumpkins! I can't wait to see some prouts comming up in the next week or so!

Sammie still wasn't quite feeling up to par so she ended up in my arms most of the day while mom and dad did most of the work. Pie had fun helping Grandma pick the rocks out of the garden and plant the seeds, it will be interesting to see how well she spaced them out!! The black flies were out with a vengance, mom had some Backwoods Off that seemed to help but I still ended up with several bites on my face and woke up on Tuesday morning with my right eye swollen shut. I swore I wouldn't complain much on this blog but there just is nothing good to say about black flies!!
