Oops! I am a little behind on my garden update for this week!

We were in North Carolina on Sunday and Monday which is usually when I take my garden update pictures,

so I took pictures of my parent’s garden instead!

Huge squash and zucchini plants. . .

And over grown zucchini.

(The zucchini model is my Dad)

Look at these cucumber trellises. What a great idea!

Ryan and I were able to confiscate some of their zucchini, squash and cucumbers to bring back with us.

We also stopped by my grandparents house, and they gave us some very large turnips.

We couldn’t wait to get back to compare them to our own:

(that little tiny thing you can barely see in Ryan’s right hand. . . yeah, that’s our turnip)

We asked Roy what was wrong with our turnips, he said,

“Those old people put more horse shit on their garden than we did!  I told you we needed more horse shit!”

I can not disagree with him.  Next year we will get more shh. . . manure.

Note: Roy and “those old people” are the same age.

This is our garden as of last night:

Everything is coming right along. We have baby peppers, cucumbers and tomatoes.

I cut what I think will be the last of the broccoli and finally got some squash,

we will be eating a lot of squash this week!
