Christmas Morning

This was actually the day after Christmas at 7:30 am. Logan got a bunch of survival gear from his aunt Emily and get himself up and dressed and let me know that he would be back by dinner (the vest is full of pockets that hold valuable survival gear).
This was Christmas morning. (pic 2) I guess Santa has a sense of humor! Logan has been bugging us for a sweet potato for a while now (before that it was a coconut). Santa put a sweet potato in Logan's stocking. Logan was AMAZED!

49ers vs Chargers preseason game

Whenever the 49ers play the Chargers in preseason football we always try to make an appearance (49er faithful - obviously). We went with Luke Bartlett (Harley's brother), Emily, Ian, Nick, myself and Logan.



The Dog Days of Summer . . .

A view of one of my gardens. In this garden there are strawberries, bell peppers, tomatillos, yellow squash, dill and A LOT of tomatoes!

These have been our favorite tomatoes, they are bigger than your hand and have the warmest flavor EVER! This tomato is so big the plant has only managed to put off 3 of them (tomatoes) this season. We don't know the name of these because all of our tomato plants came from the compost.

This is our 1st year growing tomatillos. Tomatillos grow inside of these little lantern things. They taste like tangy tomatoes and are very hardy!
















At the begining of August Logan and I went out on a rainy day and burried a few pieces of a pumpkin that had matured too early. Here is what we have now, hopefully we will get some pumpkins in time for halloween :)

There have been 2 things the heat has been good for, number 1 is hanging my laundry and number 2 is making sun tea - otherwise I am not a huge fan!
It is time to start winter veggies :)
Crazy 6 foot tall tomato jungle!
