Green

It's all green here. No, I didn't win the lottery. The yard, the garden...green and happy.

On the other hand all my kids seem to do is bother eachother all day long. Morning to night. Why can't you just get along?!!?!? They do love to be outside, so most of our time is spent outdoors playing in the yard. Lately the big hit has been the sandbox. Arden digs holes, throws dirt around and generally makes a mess. Baker has taken to creating sandcastles that include a co-op with a food storage basement, a place for the "bad guys", a place to store arrows, and several hidden doors. Kids love sand.

The garden is producing radishes, turnips, arugula, leaf lettuce, chard, spinach, sage, red russian kale, and collard greens all ready to eat! Next will be broccoli I believe. The garlic has sent up scapes and we have enjoyed those in our dinner the last few days.
All of the seeds I planted are moving right along including sunflowers, basil, delicata, zuccini, cucumber, bunching onions, cantalope!

As promised some more pictures!




Bear keep digging and prefers to spend most of his time in this hole he created:

Arden showing off his "digger" that can actually hold a whole dinosaur.
Baker displays his sand castle handy-work.


and dirty little boy feet-- yep, it's summer!
