How Does Our Garden Grow? Well, Let's Check It Out!

 I started all but the tomato plants from seeds and about a month ago we transplanted.  I couldn't have done it without Hyrum and Brigham.  Hyrum rotatilled it all, scooped and hauled the free manure from our ward member, hauled in all the dirt I'd gotten, and was the garden tip guru :)

  Brigham tested the quality of the water and mud.  It passed the test I think!

 It took me a LONG time to have the motivation to clean off his clothes and shoes...but I'm happy to report that they WERE mud free this morning...but the boots had to test out the mud again this morning so they're back on my to-do list :)

 Here's how our garden is doing now.  We've already eaten one squash and we're anxiously waiting for our tomatoes to ripen.
Here's my red-neck part of the garden.  I really wanted to test out container gardening...and so far, so good!
 
Brigham says the word "Ba! Ba!" for "Ball! Ball!" He came up to me while I was watering this week saying "Ba! Ba!"...This led me to be suspicious right away...where did he find a ball?  He proudly showed me the green tomato in his hand saying "Ba! Ba!"  Ha!  Ha!
