Fruits of our Labor

We have finally harvested the most of our garden. We were pleasantly surprised at the outcome this year. This was our first year and if I do say so myself, we did quite well. Mostly for my sake, here is what we got out of it this year:
~10 softball sized onions
~16 c. raspberries
~8 c. green beans
~18 cucumbers
~A TON of tee tiny potatoes (sadly, we didn't do so great in this area. We got a ton but they were all tiny and unusable)
~2 tomatoes
~2 Habeneros (if anyone would like them, you are more than welcome to them. I am not going near them AGAIN!!)
~4 jalapenos
~12 strawberries
~13 pumpkins
~A ton of apples
~About 20 or so apricots
~1/2 dozen ears of of corn
For being a first timer gardener, I was pleased as pie! Here is a picture of most of our pumpkins! They turned out great and anyone is more than welcome to come and get some, there is no way we are going to be using all 13!!
