Our first garden

So this past weekend, the sun FINALLY came out in Vancouver. And it wasn't freezing either, probably in the mid 60s during the day, which is like a freaking heat wave here! :) We took the opportunity to plant our very first garden. Apparantly everything grows well here, since the soil is so fertile and healthy and all that fun stuff.

I have before and after pics, I'll post them soon!

We planted strawberries, broccoli, green beans, spinach, peppers, butternut squash, zucchini, tomatoes, and parsley. Oh, and a blueberry bush! YAY! :)

I also planted 3 rose bushes and a bunch of flowers along the edge of the house to add some color:

It's not our house, just a little rented space for now...but since we have to live there, we want to make it pretty and liveable! And once we get a grill, we plan on spending lots and lots of time out there this summer!
