How does your garden grow?

Ours is doing magnificent! We are loving watching the garden expand, it's a great learning 
tool for the kids.
Going from left to right, we have the peppers first. Darryl recently had 
to buy this little gate thing to enclose them since the cucumbers were taking over the place! LOL

We just got our first bell pepper starting to sprout out! So cute. LOL
And here are the crazy cucumbers!
We are going to have to buy something for them to grow up, because they are
just taking off!

They are flowering ALOT!! We should have a ton of beautiful cucumbers very soon!
Cannot wait.

And then the last in the garden box are the watermelon.
We go to our local farmer's market and get a watermelon at least once a week.
We can't wait for the day we can get one from our own backyard!

They are growing really well!

And last, but not least are our tomatoes in the topsy turvy. We now have 4!
Cannot wait to eat one. mmmmm.

We love our garden, and we are very happy with the results for our first year of doing it.
Dixie loves to sit next to it right under the tree for some shade.
Even SHE loves the garden! ;)

Awesome looking garden. What are you going to do with all your cucumbers (besides eat them) LOL I have been thinking about making pickles but I am kind of nervous, I have never done that before. Oh well!! That is how you learn I guess.
