Update on the garden progress...
Turns out that we do actually have some dirt in our yard! Yay! Noah and I started digging around a few weeks ago and discovered where the previous owners had their garden rows. The cats and chickens then discovered them. So now we're working on a fence.
Most of the tomatoes and peppers are doing great. Very happy to get out of their tiny little pots.

| Ruthie was enjoying digging. We're trying that method of planting tomatoes super deep. |
 |
| Gee. I think it might be time to transplant. Yikes! |
 |
| I'm trying some plants in containers. Just because I like to watch them grow. |
 |
| These are both the same age. The one on the left got transplanted only one week earlier. |
 |
| We're experimenting to see what works best. Which dirt. Holes in the bottom. Gravel. Etc. |
 |
| Two new boxes in the works. Look at that cool arbor thing Captain built! It's gonna have the gate attached. The ground is soooo rocky that we couldn't even sink a proper fence post. So this is his clever solution. It's cute, too. : ) |
 |
| They just used a bunch of extra lumber. He's pretty proud of it. : ) |
 |
| Check out these potatoes! I can barely keep them covered, they grow so fast! |
 |
| Look at all my helpers! Yay! Annabelle looks confused. |
 |
| Now that's what I like to see. Guys with watering cans and power tools! : ) |
 |
| These are the last of the transplants. They're looking pretty sad, all crookedy and wild. |
 |
| Graci finally got in on all the action. She was enjoying herself, I think. |
 |
| Yep, she was. So was everyone else. And then it got dark.... And this is a really weird picture. |
The End. Or the beginning. Depending on how you look at it...
just the beginning... ; )
