How does your garden grow?

This is my first year growing a garden, kind of a trial and error. So far my corn is coming up, my tomatoes are doing well, and well as for the carrots, a few of them came up anyway.





My newest project that I want to pick up for next summer is canning fruit. I've never done it but I think that I would like to try it. I already priced a canner * totally not expensive* they make a "canning for dummies book* and get my jars and I'm ready to go. Since its too late this summer it will be my project for next summer. Although I am ready to get started now, cant do much about that now.
I planted some poppies this year in an experimental spot and a few of them seem to me coming up.

Not exactly the color we were shooting for!

So Chris finally let me paint something in the house. My project...the upstairs bathroom. I really had no idea what color to go for, and no real leads. So I picked up a book at Lowes and said how about this one. The label says "aloe vera" but when I look at it I say "minty green." Since I'm tired from painting we are gonna just have to stick with this color for a while. So off shopping we go to find some accent colors to go with it, maybe after all we can pull it together.*hopefully*

Here is before I decided to paint:





And after the painting project:


I will post some more pictures when we have our little bathroom project completely finished.
