Green Thumb Wanna Be



Leland and I are trying our hands at growing a garden for the first time. We planted pumpkins, gourds, peppers, tomatoes, and cucumbers. The deer decided about the third day everything was planted and hadn't been disturbed that it was ok to go into the garden. They pulled one of the tomato plants right out of the ground and ate the main stem to both of the plants. They also ate the main stem to the yellow pepper plant. They haven't bothered much lately, but that is because I don't think the plants were getting enough water and were beginning to look a little sad. We are working to bring the plants to better health!! Hopefully by the end of summer we will be able to enjoy some of the fruits of our labors!!!!
