Ok, here we go. I'm new to this blog thing, so please bear with me. My goal with blogging is just to share pictures with friends and family so we can all stay connected. Since so many of you live so far away from us, we want to share our lives with you the best we can. I hope you enjoy!
OUR PORCH
Matthew looking so so happy sitting on our front porch :) I swear he really loves this porch! It has been wonderful eating meals together out here during these few nice days in Portland. THE GARDEN
Here's my little garden. After my bachelorette party weekend, I came to the house to find that Matt had built me this sweet little planter box for my veggie garden! Best surprise!
Two tomato plants and a row of scraggly lettuce (it's been way too hot for it) Oh and please ignore the piles of bamboo leaves, I'll complain more about that later.
Our snap peas are going crazy along with Thai chili peppers and Cowhorn peppers. I also planted two jalapeño plants from seed, but they're only about an inch tall and nowhere near producing any peppers. There was lots of cilantro too, but I just picked it all so there's nothing to see there.
And a few pots of herbs... parsley, basil, lavender and mint. Matt thinks basil is the only thing worth growing out of these, but I disagree!THE TABLE
Finally, I have to show off the beautiful mosaic table that my grandpa made and gave to us for our wedding. He had the wrought iron frame custom built and we found a great deal on some stools that match perfectly. Now we eat dinner on it every night and will be sad when it gets too cold and rainy to be outside, which I know with be much too soon!
