Jaden, our neighbor, came over with her friend Leah, and helped water our flowers in the front yard for about an hour. We only had one watering can so plastic cups were used instead. Cute kids.
Jeana and Audrey got new flip-flops for Mother’s Day. They were a present from Audrey. Audrey did really good to keep a secret – or so I thought. Jeana told me after the fact the Audrey slipped and told Jeana that she (Audrey) got some new sandals, but that it was a surprise for Mother’s Day.
Jeana order some garden dividers from the square-foot gardening folks in Utah. It’s a shame that the peas didn’t survive for this growing season – I really love peas from the garden. Tomatoes seem to grow well here, until Kate picks them prematurely. Our carrots are growing well, and we noticed Friday that a cucumber is actually growing!
Your garden looks great! I am starting my square foot gardening too! I LOVE it! Are you growing basil? It’d be good with your homemade pasta – delish!
We are growing Basil – it is in the garden that barely shows up in the picture. When we were out looking at the garden just the other day, the basil was growing really strong. Our parsley, right next to the basil, was really full too. What I didn’t mention is that we’ve had plenty of rain during this growing season and I think that has made a big difference.
