Why do I Blog?

Life is so fast & furious with 3 young children, working from home, ect that I fear I will forget the lovely details of my girls' precious childhood.

My main motivation for blogging is to capture the every day moments...so I don't forget them before I have a chance to scrapbook. Sharing with you is just an added bonus. Keeping this blog has helped me get the photos off my camera's memory card and label/organize them on my laptop. It is the BEST tool I have for scrapbooking. I haven't ever been able to keep a journal, but this I can do. I don't pretend to have anything interesting to say. In fact I'm sure this little blog is boring to you, but to me it is priceless!

0 Growing Garden Update

Just look at my garden grow!

It is amazing to watch. 

I spent about 6 hours tending to it last weekend though.

I researched online and decided to try out Ferrandino’s  pruning techniques.  I took me from 9am till 1pm to trim and tie up all 40 tomato plants.  I was so tired I didn’t take a picture till I went out later that evening to finish watering.  I sure hope that I get a good yield!  Right now I have about a half dozen small fruits, but I knocked a few of them off trying to prune.  Drat!
