Gardening

We have started our garden for the year.  Andy thought he was going to keep it simple this year, but Lucas had other plans. Lucas listed about 20 vegetables he wanted to plant.  I think Andy talked him back down to about 8. So we have planted lettuce, carrots, basil (I know it's an herb and not a vegetable), cucumbers, tomatoes, squash and zucchini.  We are still going to plant corn, but haven't go to it yet.  The boys have been helping with the watering and weeding on a daily basis.



Our fruit plants/trees have lots of "baby" apples, peaches, and grapes on them.  We have also been enjoying  strawberries from a small patch we started last year.  The boys eat the strawberries before we can get them in the house, so they must be yummy!
