These were taken from the deck because it was raining...but look!! We've got growth!!



Lettuces are "poofing" (as Chris said)


Grow Garden Grow!!

A Visit to the Garden

We just visited the garden two days ago. It absolutley blows my mind how much has changed in just two days. Avery and family went out of town for the holiday weekend so Jenn and I stopped by to water it today...

and guess what?!?!?!?

We have GREEN BEAN PLANTS!! Finally!


An update on the rest of the plants:
The Cucumbers have flowers!:

Corn:

Radishes:

Carrots:

SweetPeas:

Lopes:

Pumpkins...kinda worried about them:

And cause I thought they looked very good today...Marigolds:

Grow Garden Grow!!!

Oh, and our robins...they left the nest. We missed it. :( But some Googling showed us that robins lay more than one set of eggs each season...so we will wait for the next set.

What a difference a few days makes!

Lyz and I had decided that if there were no new sprouts by tonight, we would replant after the softball game.

Our phone rang at 4:30. It was a very excited Avery! She called to let us know that there were pumpkin sprouts and pea shoots and corn stalks growing!! She also made us promise that we would come over tonight and see all the new stuff!!

Of course we would come over and see the new growth!!

Look how much the radishes have grown in five days:


Avery showing off one batch of pumpkins:


And the giant pumpkins:


Corn is growing too:


Hmm...somehow I forgot to get a picture of the peas!!

So now we are only missing cucumbers, cantaloupes, carrots and green beans. I think I see some carrots growing...but it is hard to tell because we missed a little bit of the grass when we were taking it out of the ground.

Farmer Chris is enjoying inspecting the work:


In other growth news...our eggs have multiplied!

Look!! Radish sprouts!!

See those cute little sprouts? Yeah!! We have radish sprouts!! Avery was so very excited to show us!


Nothing else is growing. We are going to give it a few more days and if nothing else has shown up, we will replant. We may have done the planting a bit on the early side because we have had quite a few nights where it has gotten close to freezing, so we will just wait and see.

There is even more growth going on at Avery's house. On the front porch there is a fake ficus tree. In the fake ficus tree a happy robin couple has built a nest. Now there are two beautiful eggs in the nest. We are all excited to keep an eye on the nest and watch the eggs "grow up"!

We have sprouting!!

We received a very excited phone call this afternoon from Avery.

The radishes are sprouting!!!

We shall go visit them tomorrow and come back with pictures of our happy little sprouts!!!
