Fall is here...

It's definately fall here now.....temps in the 30's overnight and 50's during the day......we even had a few snow flurries this morning.

Planning on pulling out the vegetable garden tomorrow. It did very very well this year...I just love the square foot gardening concept...this year was one of the best years yet.

We canned 'Apple Pie In A Jar' already with the apples we bought at the local orchard.

Tomatoes are next! Will be making Tomato Juice!

Waaaaahooooo we're gonna have grass again!!!!!!!!!

Yeah small change in plans tonight....I was going to ride since it's such a beautiful night tonight.....but when I got home from work, Mike (brother-in-law) was here rototillering (hehe...ya I know not even a word, but you know what I mean) it's been all summer that we've had nothing but dirt down the middle of our yard, had to have dirt brought in to level things out, there was always a huge puddle everytime it rained, anyways.....we had a war with the neighbor so that's why it hadn't gotten done in forever......sooooo needless to say I was very happy to see Mike here tilling away.....I ran and got grass seed and got er done......I'm sooo happy to see straw in my yard now instead of dirt!

Yes the pictures are backwards but I didn't feel like messing with it all tonight! To bad!

Things are a growin'....


Tomatoes are doing very well....



I still only have one 'pea' plant coming up.....not sure what's wrong with that situation....but cucumbers, peppers and green beans are doing great....



Carrots, lettuce and herbs are also doing good... I lost 2 lettuce plants but nothing else....
