The joys of having a big yard!

Dont get me wrong i love having such a big yard.... But boy is it quite the job to take care of!!! We for the 3rd year in a row planted a garden it has been alot funner this year then in past years. The first year travis and i werent married yet so i couldnt spend as much time as i wanted in the garden seeing as we werent really aloud to be at the house alone. And last year being the first trimester of my pregnancy it made me sick to sit in the sun and weed, water and pick plants. This year it has been so much fun to actually be able to enjoy and help alot. Erilyn also enjoys "helping" me water and check the plants out, i hope that she likes having a garden as she grows up! We also planted flowers in the front this year! We did last year also but just did seeds and couldnt tell what was weeds or flowers so it looked ugly  hahaha! So we decided this year to buy actual plants and plant them they are all perenials so hopefully we wont have to ever plant there again.

Tomatoes, tomatoes and tomatoes we started them in the house this year we werent sure how they were going to work out so we planted 25 and lost 5 next year we deffinantly arent doing as much!
