Radishes!

Radishes! Our first harvest from the backyard garden this season!!!

To Do List

For over a month, updating our blog has been on my"to do" list. Finally, I'm sitting down to check it off.

We spent some time in May getting the garden prepped for planting and getting a few cold hardy things in the ground.

We drove to St. George, Utah to proudly support my friend Tom in his first Iron Man Triathlon. He was AWESOME!!!! He looked great during the entire race and finished in just over 12 hours. It was a very inspiring event.

We hosted a baby shower BBQ in honor of Ryan and Patricia (due in just 5 weeks!!!).

We spent Memorial Day weekend doing the Iron Horse Bicycle Classic for the third year in a row.

Stayed the weekend in Silverton, and can't believe we haven't before! A quick hike, Montanya Rum Distillery, Handlebars Restaurant and friends who are excited to share a $6 pack of fake mustaches. It was a spectacular 3 day weekend.

Dave spent the first few days of June hard at work in our garden planting what will hopefully become a bountiful harvest in a few months.

We planted generally the same crops as last year (minus peas, bush beans, and pumpkin).

New items in the garden this year.... parsnips, radishes, red kuri squash, hopi melon, asian greens, cabbage, kidney beans, black beans, hopi purple beans, edamame, brussle sprouts.
