On Saturday, Tomato Extravaganza 2009 was born.
For your viewing pleasure, a photo journey with captions.
Exhibit A: Genesis
Exhibit B- Padre tilled the earth.
Exhibit C: Padre raked the earth
Exhibit D: Lest you think I did nothing, the spoils of my shopping trip.
Exhibit E: Lupe, on the other hand, really did nothing.
Exhibits F & G: Together, we planted the earth,
which thrilled Lupe to pieces.
Exhibit H: Now, the earth looks like this.
Thirty-three (33) tomato plants darn near qualifies the three of us (Lupe doesn't count) as bona fide farmers.
E-I-E-I-O.
Progress to follow.

Way to go Farmer girl. I am impressed. I will be even more impressed if I get to taste even just one of those babies. (did that sound selfish?) Tomato right out of the garden=my favorite :)
That's super impressive. I LOVE fresh garden tomatoes. And I bet you never thought anyone would say this to you....but I'm really jealous of your dirt. The dirt in Ohio totally sucks and is all clay-ey. I don't know if our little tomato seedlings will even grow. And as far as E-I-E-I-O, that was Emerson's first word. Seriously. We're counting it. And Little Floyd is a cute little bump.
Wow, you're brave! I swear the second I touch any sort of plant...it immediately dies. Make sure you FedEx me a tomato or five when they're good to go :). Or just bring it by. ;)
Love it. I can't wait to see how the canning extravaganza goes this fall. I planted my flowers last night. Thought about taking pics, but didn't get around to it.
