Look what we have in our back yard!!
We are so excited!! This is the second year we have grown a garden, and it looks like the Lord is going to be providing us with lots of fresh veggies again this summer. I love seeing all the plants grow and get bigger each day, but I really love it when you can see the food coming forth!! GOD IS SO GOOD!!! I can't even imagine how much money this is saving, but I know it is a lot. Our friends Jimmy & Jana are helping again this year, and Rachel & Randy jumped on board as well. We expanded our garden this year, and it spreads from one side of the yard to the other. Double what it was last year!! Oh, I can't wait to eat those veggies!! If everything grows and produces, we should have yellow squash, zucchini, maybe a few carrots (the jury is still out on those), cauliflower, butternut squash, cucumbers, cantaloupes, tomatoes, corn, bell peppers (three different colors), black eyed peas, crowder peas & green beans. A little later this summer we will be planting more beans, broccoli, spinach, and eggplant. I think that is it, I may have forgotten something, but we should have food of some sort!! This is a great opportunity for me to teach the girls about how God provides for us. He takes those tiny (some extremely tiny) seeds and turns them into some of the best food I have ever eaten!!
