How Does Your Garden Grow?

Photobucket

5.20.09 Our cosmos are out of control and taking over the garden and they still haven't bloomed. Going to give them a little more time to bloom and if they don't we'll have to get rid of them. (they are just at Eliana's right)
I removed them before our trip to NV and CA (more to come on that soon)

We returned from our trip to find many more sunflowers blooming and growing so tall! I LOVE THEM!!

This is our squash, watermelon and pumpkin garden. We just planted the pumpkins before we left and they are now small plants (on the right). We are so excited for our fruit and vegetables! Gardening is lots of fun!
OUR SANDBOX!!

Right before we left Christian also finished the sandbox for the girls. It is huge and they love it! It provides hours of entertainment and lots of gritty floors, scalps and bums... but, it keeps them busy and they love it so much it's worth it to me.
