Okay Momma....here is the update on the garden! :) Weston was so excited that the watermelons that he planted are finally getting some little melons on them! Aren't they so cute there?!
This morning we went out to pick the few tomatoes that were ripe enough to pick! I wanted to get to them before the birds did. Aaron and Amber wanted to help me out. Here they are standing in front of our garden. It is outgrowing the raised bed that we planted it in. I am glad that everything is growing so well though!!!
Here is a better shot of the tomatoes that we picked this morning. Aren't they big and juicy looking?! They are huge! When the other boys came out and saw that we had a couple of ripe tomatoes, they decided that we needed to have tacos so that we could eat them up! At least they want to eat them right?!
Aaron and Amber with the yummy tomatoes!! They weren't looking, but the picture was too cute not to include!
Aaron loves to pick the veggies from the garden. I just wish that he was just as excited about eating when he picks.
The cucumbers grow like crazy! It seemed at first that they were taking over the garden. They are delicious though and they grow so fast that it gives the kids lots of things to pick. It has been so fun for all of us to see how just a few little seeds can grow into so much!
More cucumbers... Can you spy it in there?
Here are the green beans on the vine for you Momma! We get enough just about every other day to have them with our dinner. The kids are enjoying eating them. We did plant carrots and peas as well, but the vines took over their spots and choked them out so we didn't get any of those. Well, at least we will know better for next year right?!
And this is so that you can see how long the beans are. The kids love to pick them, but they don't get to pick them until they are big like this!! :) I am really enjoying our little garden! Who knows? We might even expand it next year!!!

That is a wonderful little garden that you planted. Thanks for showing me all the veggies and Aaron and Amber look sweet out there picking things. Why does Amber have a towel wrapped around her, was it cold?
Yay! I love the garden!!! You sure have some big veggies! :) And Aaron and Amber look so cute. Amber looks like she is protecting the tomato like she would a little dolly, all tucked up inside her blanket. :) Great job on the garden!
No, it wasn't cold. She wanted it wrapped all around her all morning. She kept telling me it was her lovely blanket! :) I love her imagination
I love gardens! Good job, Kristie! Yum, fresh produce.
