Garden updates

Here is our friend the green anole (currently he looks pretty brown)! He watches us water the garden and is out there scurrying along the back wall of our house every time we go out in the back yard! He seems curious sometimes, but gets scared and hides when Jason mows the lawn.

Isaac loves to come to this flower bed and stare at the flowers. Lately he wants to pick them, too!


These flowers attract butterflies! We were hoping to have a butterfly garden when we chose these plants! There have been a lot more butterflies in our yard than last year, so I think it's working!





We have a bunch of tomatoes, and different varieties of them, too! We have yellow squash and zucchini plants, cucumber and sugar snap pea vines, cauliflower, and asparagus. We also have spearmint, basil, cilantro, sage, and rosemary herbs growing!


Tomatoes on the vine! They will be red and ready to pick soon!






Isaac REALLY loves to play in the back yard! He would rather be back there walking around than just about anywhere else!
We picked off a bunch of "sucker" branches on our tomato plants and put them in water. They sprung a BUNCH of roots, and then we put them in pots! We are super excited about eating tomatoes from our garden! They should be ready to pick soon!
