Looking good....

Our garden is growing pretty well. Chris is out there watering once or twice a day because he likes to and he doesn't trust the drip system that we put in, so we're going to add another watering system of some kind for when it gets hot. Gabriel and Christopher are SO excited about things growing. Christopher just naturally gets excited about everything, but Gabe is just amazed that the things he planted are growing. His mystery beans are green beans and he can hardly wait to pick them.

We've added more stuff until we are out of space. We planted a pommegranate tree, a fig tree, peppers for salsa, green beans (before we knew that's what Gabe's were), garlic, more strawberries and more tomatoes...oh yeah, and artichokes. We'll be eating them all in about a month, I guess. Here are some pictures of some of the things that are growing. We are really going to have a lot of grapes!


Above is the fig Tree...those little green balls at the end of the stalk will be figs...
