hey all,
well after our nice little shower we just had it is now so stinking muggy here...and sticky...loved the rain though it came down so steady...the garden was loving it...i think my pumpkin that i just took a pic of yesterday is now twice the size...i can't believe how big it has gotten...i am so excited...i know my garden doesn't look like much, but i am so proud of it for being my first garden ever...even though the pumpkins are taking over everything..(as you can see in the pics)...my dh asked my what i want to do with the garden and i was like what do you mean...he just wanted to know if i wanted to make it bigger...i was like i dunno...i just suggested not planting as much next year...and to put the pumpkins off to the side by the fence...so we will have to see what happens...i guess i wouldn't mind go bigger, but that means more work involved and i was hoping to keep it the size that i have right now until i get a little bit more experienced with gardening...

we have been in kinda of a drought here lately...and yesterday we finally got some rain around here...and the weather is calling for more rain through friday...so yeah...i will have to go get a pic of my garden and show you all my huge pumpkin that is growing...i can't believe how big it has gotten...it seems everyday that it has gotten bigger...and my dog is too funny she will walk out to the garden and check everything out she stares at the pumpkin and barks at it....
well i guess besides not having to mow in the last 2 weeks nothing really to report here...except that i will be mowing this weekend and my grass is now turning back to its original color...GREEN....
