No Black Thumb Here!

Happy Thursday to everyone!! First I want to give you all a small apology about not being on here as much! I promise I will be better. Things with my Etsy shop have been going crazy fast and I am trying to catch up! It is a good thing though, but I feel like my blog has taken the backseat and that will change!

I am excited to update everyone on our family garden and how this life style is slowly changing us! First can I tell you that my garden is growing like crazy!!!! I seriously was afraid that I might have a black thumb but it turns out, it is pretty green. Trust me, I was in complete shock. I was expecting everything to turn brown and die within days of being planted but the total opposite happened. They are growing!!! And growing fast!



My herb collection is growing wonderfully! My poor basil plant gets picked almost daily. I may need to give him a basil friend!


Ok! So the biggest surprise to me is my tomato plant. This thing it literally about 10 times bigger than it was when I first planted it. It just keeps growing! I may need a bigger wire! 

Oh and it is growing flowers which means tomatoes are next!!


And the garden is taking off! I couldn't be happier - well maybe once everything starts actually growing!






Oh and that small guy up there is Ty's turnip plant. He brought the seeds home from school and we decided to give it a shot and they have sprouted!!! Ty was so happy!

So there is my update! Hopefully within the next couple of months things will actually start growing. That will definitely put a smile on my face!
