Our Garden

Reagan loves to help me pick the food from the garden and the berries. Lastnight he kept pulling out huge cucumbers. (We didn't need more of those.) Ryan's 7 foot wall of string beans is especially impressive. We'll have to post more pics of the huge banana squashes when it's time to harvest them. Squash bugs killed our pumpkin plant, but not before we got 6 pumpkins out of it. Since the plant died, they turned orange early so I have been making pumpkin pie. It's kind of strange to be baking pumpkin pie in August, but it still tastes good. We're loving the tomatoes, onions, string beans, blackberries, and raspberries. Our peaches are starting to turn orange. I love this time of year.
