Garden Bounty

Look at this beaut!



We have cantaloupe and watermelon coming up in our garden & we didn't even plant them! Our former homeowners must have grown them in previous years and they came back again.

Tiny little baby watermelon!
There's no perspective in this pic, but this
little guy is probably only about an inch
or two big right now.

We've planted corn, okra and tomatoes. We've gotten a decent amount of okra from our 2 plants, but I feel like some of it starts going bad before I have enough to make a side dish with them. I have to supplement with market-bought okra. We have LOTS of tomatoes, but somehow they keep disappearing off the vine before they turn red (DOGSSSSSSSS!!!!!!). We have several ears of corn that should be ready any day now.

The boys have taken somewhat of an interest in gardening, or at least eating what comes out of our garden, which is really neat!
