Shay's 29th Birthday and My First Gardening Experiment

One of my girlfriends at the salon decided to grow her vegetables from seeds this year and accidentally planted WAY too many, so she gave some to me. We'll see how it goes...

These are mini cucumbers, squash and zucchini. I'm worried about planting these cuz they are vine plants and I'm not sure I have the room for them. I'll think about it for a few more days... Maybe my father in law will want them for his garden. Probably not... :)


Here are the two containers I have so far. Since I don't have room to do a garden I'm doing Container Planting. A lot of people have success with it so I thought I'd give it a try.


These are the tomatoes. The one in the top left is Roma, and the bottom right are Pear.
This lonely guy is a jalapeno plant! Perfect for salsa!


I'm nervous. They are so small still and I hope I can give them a happy life! If they do grow and provide veggies I'll share with you all because I'm sure I'll have more than I can eat. Shay doesn't eat veggies so I'm on my own with this one!


It was Shay's birthday May 2 and he supposed to go golfing with his dad but it was pouring rain outside so he sadly cancelled those plans and we went bowling and to dinner with friends instead! Thanks again for coming guys!



Shay wanted a bike for his birthday so all our family member chipped in to help get it for him. Here he is with his new bike!


Sorry this one is sideways.



Then on Monday we went to dinner with his family at Texas Roadhouse. It was fun and the food was yummy too!


Here's the birthday boy! I love you lots babe! Hope you had a good day and next year you'll be able to golf, I promise! :)
