Happy 4th of July!!!

Hello all,

Today is July 4th, and I am stuck at work. We got up late this morning and we ate a dinner with my parents, and Heidi's family at about 3pm. We had Rot Roast, potatoes, my fresh peas from the garden, a jello salad, and homemade monkey bread. It was all delicious. I had to leave early so I could come and take calls at work. YEA!!!...Not! People who feel it is necessary to call on a holiday for travel that is further out then the next couple of days need to get a life. There are much better things to be doing on a Holiday other than calling a reservations center. Oh well, I am atleast sitting in an air conditioned building.
I am going to start posting recipe's, feel free to share if you like.

My garden

Hello all,

I was able to get out with the family today and pick our first harvest of peas. They are yummy, and I do not like peas very much. I am so excited for my garden. We have not had a garden before and it is alot of fun seeing the peas, the broccoli, the strawberries, and the green beans coming on. Now I just need to keep the family out of eating them straight from the garden so I can get enough to freeze. I am still anxiously awaiting potatoes, and hopefully our corn will start growing faster. It is in a bad spot and so the sun doesn't hit it for as long as it could. Oh, and we planted tomatoes, but that was only a couple of weeks ago, but they are thriving. I will take pictures and post as soon as possible.
I am at work right now. It is soooo slow, I have taken only 14 calls in 5 hours. And I am luckily keeping my average call time down.
Trent took me out to lunch today that was alot of fun.
