gardens and golf...

the past week we have had very cold and rainy weather with thunder storms at night. it has finally warmed up a little more these past two days so i was able to get outside to take some good pictures of my veggie garden and the exterior of our house.



we want to purchase a little table and chairs for under the awning, but for now, our little card table and camping chairs will do :) a big thank you to carol for the hanging flower baskets...they add a lot of color.

my veggie garden...i have tomatoes, basil, cilantro, cucumbers, peppers, and squash planted.

this picture was taken when they were first planted. they have grown a ton and are now starting to blossom...i'm hoping to be able to eat some tomatoes from my garden really soon!

aaron and i finally had a day off together yesterday. i had worked a 6 day stretch, so i was ready to have the day off! aaron had planned a date night which consisted of mini golf at a little family fun center in spokane. then dinner at our new Red Lobster, and a movie. the winner of mini golf got to pick the movie. i really wanted to see the new movie "The Proposal," and aaron's pick was "Star Trek." aaron apparently was a "trekky" when he was younger. i on the the other hand have never seen an episode of "Star Trek", so i was not too excited about that. well...aaron pulled out the victory in mini golf (i was leading the entire game, but got behind when aaron had a hole-in-one, and it took me 5 strokes!)

so i reluctantly went to "Star Trek." i have to say, it wasn't that bad, but i would have much rather seen a romantic comedy :)
