The first thing I should probably mention is that I got into a fight with and apricot tree...and the tree won!  lol  I was picking apricots and fell out of the tree head first.  I ended up in the hospital.  Here are a few of my wounds.

I mentioned in passing that we planted a garden this year.  I had NO IDEA how much an 8th of an acre would produce.  I am overwhelmed with produce.  lol

This is one days worth of pickings.  We get this every day!

and...

and...

The first is a box of zuchini an squash.  Yes, the is only one days worth.  I only planted 2 of each plant.  UGH!

The next is a basket of pickling cucumbers.  I have been making pickles...and will continue for another month or so.

The last picture is salad cucumbers.  They are great to eat...but we have too many!!!  lol

We are on a half acre, and I planted along the entire back of our property, and along the sides of the house as well.

Here is one half of my garden:

Here is the other half...

I had to use two photos, because it is so large.  lol

We have zuchini, squash, grapevines, cucumbers (both pickling and salad), tomatoes, cantaloupe, watermelon, mini pumpkins, white pumpkins, large orange pumpkins, spaghetti squash and corn.

Here is my front garden with mint and rosemary growing.  My lavendar isn't doing to well.  This is after I hacked down the mint.  It was 3 times as tall before.

Here is the view from my backyard of our mountains:

We have quite a bit of grass in, but as you can see we are still working on it.

I will be posting photos of our soccer games as soon as I figure out how to download them.  ;)
