I went out to take a look at what was happening in my garden today, as I do every day and thought I would share it with you. Fist is my Rhubarb that I planted this year. I have cut from it once and then read after that that you should wait a few years before you cut from it. Of well, it seems to have come back just fine.
Next is my lettuce. I haven't had any of it yet, and probably won't but now I can say I've grown lettuce. It wasn't the kind that I originally wanted. Maybe I'll try it sometime though. :)
Then one of the more exciting things I saw was this little watermelon. The vines have been growing an flowering like crazy but I had yet to have any actual watermelons for until today! I only saw the one but didn't look around to much because I had to break up a fight over strawberries!
Here are Matthews sunflowers. he planted three different mounds of seeds and they just opened up yesterday. He is so proud. He goes and checks them every day with me and wants to water them himself!
Then we have my tomatoes. I have quiet a few of them coming and it seems like even more are coming. Thats good, because I ran out of spaghetti sauce last year. This is the first one to change to red.
Here are a few pictures of the kids at Grandma Tina and Grandpa Darrels farm. There neighbors have horses and Matthew had been asking for weeks if he could ride one. They happened to saddle them while we were there last and both kids got to ride.
