More produce from our garden!

Our tomatoes finally started to turn red. 

We picked some this evening and I am so excited to try them! 

We also got another cucumber.

I never thought it would be this much fun to grow our own food.

Here are some pictures:

Yay for vegetables! 

Our other vegetables that we planted:

carrots

pumpkins (which are doing really well. I think we have 8 or so pumpkins starting)

beans

lettuce

squashes of all kinds

onions

strawberries

I had planted some flowers as well but I think our garden people tilled without knowing. I was a little upset when I came home and found out what had happened. There were some that were starting to bud but I don't think they survived and I am not sure if any will come up. I guess I will have to plant some more soon.

Anyway...Adam started his new job yesterday! For the first two days he was in orientation and now he will start training for a month or so. We'll find out if he actually likes the job tomorrow. *crossing my fingers*

Also, my sister-in-law and niece are going to be in town later tonight and I can't wait to see them tomorrow! They are going to be here for a while and later this month we are going to Mirror Lake as a family. My brother-in-law will also be joining us then. 

August is going to be a super busy month! 

There will be weddings, births, family, friends and dun dun dun....school! 

Cucumber!!!

Today, we harvested our first thing from the garden! It was a CUCUMBER!!! I am so excited about it. I've never really grown anything like this before. Adam's friend, Dana has been coming over and helping us out. He told Adam that is was probably time to pick the cucumber and hoped that it wasn't bitter. So Adam picked it a couple of hours ago and we ate it. Luckily it wasn't bitter and it was quite delicious! There was another one that we picked because it was a pretty good size.

Here is a picture of it.

Weekend fun

Adam and I had a pretty good weekend. We hung out with the Ludwig's on Friday. Mary and one of their neighbors made us homemade pizza that was delicious. Then we played a game and just chatted. We got to meet their new little one, Quinn. He is adorable and looks almost exactly like their little girl.
Saturday, Adam worked and then we went to the Utah Arts Festival! This was the first year I had ever been. We walked around and looked at a lot of art work. Then, we saw a ward member that does pottery and we bought a few things. It was really cool to see how creative people are.
Here are some pictures:

Afterward, we went to Ogden and saw our friends, Tanya and Jace! We went to the drive-in and watched Cars 2 and Kung Fu Panda 2! It was a ton of fun! Here are some pictures from that:

It was a good weekend! I just love weekends! 

Also, another exciting thing is, we have tomatoes!! Adam got some stuff from a friend of his and so they planted them by the house and we also have cucumbers, pumpkins, and strawberries. But right now only the tomatoes are coming in and possibly the cucumbers. I have pictures of them too! 

Hope everyone has a good week! I should be going in to do my labs and sonohystergram this week sometime. =) Hopefully everything turns out ok.
