Time to Grow...

I would like to think...or say that I have a green thumb.  My windowsill consists of about 10-15 different plants!  Bamboo...Mint...Jade...Fukien Tea Tree...Lavender...Aloe...Forget Me Nots...Creeping Charlie....so many!  But I have wanted to try and grow my own vegetables...but don't have the room...so I came up with an idea.  I went to the local farmer's market and picked up a tomato plant and a zucchini plant for $2!  And where did I plant them?  In a little red wagon I found!  I hope that it works and is big enough!  I am excited to see if the plants produce any veggies!  Here are some pictures of my plants....
My Mint Plant!  I love planting in cute teacups!

Fukien Tea Bonsai Tree

Jade...Brandon's Mom planted it for our 1 year anniversary!  It is already sprouting!

Some weird plant my sister got me! Pretty colors!

My other Fukien Tea Tree...it arrived dead and I brought it back to life!

One Year!

So for our One Year Anniversary, Brandon surprised me with a trip to Ocean City Maryland!  We drove down first thing on Sunday morning and stayed the night.  We got a hotel room right on the beach with a little balcony and it was great!  We even got upgraded to a suite as they needed our room to accommodate another family!  We were on the beach for a little and then went out to dinner and then bounced around on the boardwalk...trying different places!  It was great!  I only have a few pictures though....as my camera died!  I was so upset!  But it was a great time none-the-less.  Great to get away!  Here are the few pictures that I managed to take!
