An awesome garden

We had a pretty awesome garden this year.  The kids helped plant and weed and take care of it, and Braden was SO excited for his carrots to be ready to pick.  He went out nearly every week all summer to check and see if they were big enough, and it was a definite celebration when they were big enough.  Sabree loved eating the carrots dipped in ranch.  We also had a lovely crop of crenshaws, zucchini, cucumbers, pumpkins, and more beans than we could use.  Our strawberries were pretty awesome as well.  They were so sweet and delicious and Sabree couldn't get enough of them.  Since this was their first year their wasn't a ton at a time, but we picked a handful every couple days which is perfect for eating.  My 6 tomato plants were great too.  I had enough to trade with the neighbor for eggs, plus I made multiple batches of pizza sauce and mandarin sauce.
