**Our Garden**

Michael and I started a garden this year!
We planted:
Bell Peppers (I picked our first green one yesterday!!)
Watermelon
Squash (even though I can't stand the stuff :))
Herbs, such as:
Cilantro
Parsley
Italian Basil
Thyme
We also planted Chives
Onions
Jalapenos &
Roma Tomatoes!
So far we have one bell pepper, jalapenos & tomatoes
that look like they are really coming along!!
We plan to make yummy salsa when
everything is ripe and ready to go!
It's been fun to take care of the garden together,
weeding & watering;
And just watching everything grow!
The garden was all Michael's idea, he has been wanting
one for a long time, but with the condo, we weren't really able to...
It's so nice to have a yard and be able to make it our own!

Our latest letters:
You can't really tell in the picture
(click to enlarge),
but the U is a watermelon!
How cute is that?
And for July:
My Mother-in-law is so very talented!
She cuts all of the wood herself!
Awesome right?! She also hosts parties!
What a great idea for GNO!!
