This was taken on week 4 of planting the garden. The corn has taken off nicely. We have several well established zucchini plants that look good, and 3 out of 5 tomato plants look good. The peppers are good, the radishes, about 1/2 successful and beans are all so/so. Seems like the soil on the far right is just too hard and compacted for the plants to do as well as we had hoped. Next year, above ground beds for sure! This Corona soil is terrible!
The mounds you see in the foreground are my two varieties of watermelons and on far left is one row of pumpkins. Those were planted on week two, so after only two weeks, they are doing well.

Yumm, fresh strawberries. I remember successfully growing those in Corona too.
I loved your previous post too. Fun to get together with your sibblings. And the pictures of Claire and Hannah are adorable.
Keep those garden updates coming. I love watching the corn grow. Soon it will be as high as an elephants eye.

PS - Keep those lizards away....
Mmmmm, tomatoes. If you wake up one morning and they are all gone, I didn't do it.
My Boo used to be like that with his pacifiers. OMG it was something else. I still remember the day I decided to take them away. He's probably still traumatized over it.
Seeing that pic of Noah sleeping really makes me want to go to bed now, instead of blogging. I think I will!
