Vegetables

 It was time to harvest some veggies today!  We've already picked a lot of beans, broccoli, a few green peppers and tomatoes.  Today we dug up all of the potatoes and onions, picked more tomatoes, and just a few more beans.
See the onions!

 Nice looking tomatoes
Tristan basically picked whatever he could get his hands on
 About halfway thru picking vegetables we found a caterpillar....and then another....Jackson was quite distracted by this point
He just loved letting the caterpillars crawl all over him
 Look at all them taters!
This was pretty much our first year for a garden.  It was pretty tiny but you have to start somewhere!  Maybe next year we'll do a little more.  We did manage to have a few meals of broccoli and green beans from our garden and I froze a few bags of green beans as well.  Jackson has been working on the grape tomatoes, he's the only one who really eats them in our house.  We've used the larger tomatoes for BLTs.  Yum!
