ok here we go....

well we are going to try out this blog thing. we are trying to live as simply as possible and this will be the place to keep track of our adventures. i will probably be the main (if not only) writer to this blog. i'm leslilli, i have been married for 7 years to my hubby and we have 2 boys, bubby (4years) and jelly bean (11.5 months). we also have 2 dogs, brutus (7, a pug) and vera (3 months, border collie). we also have a flock of naughty chickens known as "the girls". this is the first year for us in our red door home, we have a veggie garden, it's full of weeds but i am still getting tons of veggies out of it. next year the plans are for a much bigger garden, i didn't seem to make it big enough to can things too. good thing we have lots of goods farmers markets in the area. i have been making lots of jam, bubby, jelly and i have been going to u-picks for strawberries , red raspberries, and blueberries. at the end of the week it will be black raspberries hopefully.....mmmmm homemade jam.
