Gardening and Soccer

Every morning I go out to our garden and feel such success because everything is still green and alive : ) I am really proud of our little garden and how much it’s producing. We haven’t picked anything yet but very soon!! Here are some pictures… It’s nothing compared to the Pedersen’s Garden but maybe someday!!

Our Cucumber Plant, It has attached itself to each of the pepper plants, the onions and the zucchini plants… It’s a very friendly plant! We have at least 5 cucumbers on their way.
