1st pics

So the Garden Master tells me we planted the first seedlings and seeds in May.  Why, then, are my first garden pics from June 3??  I blame the children, and the job, and the dog, and the day-to-day household upkeep... Ok, excuses over, these are the pics from June 3.

Baby Boy and the Garden Master are checking out the tomatoes.
Tomatoes, definitely my favorite!  We have a few varieties in here. Heirlooms, Big Something-or-Others, Yellow Grapes and Red Cherries.      


Banana Peppers- this was an impulse buy on the Garden Master's part, if you ask me.  There were two empty spots in the garden, and the seedlings looked really healthy when we were looking at our favorite place ;)


Flowers growing on our green beans!!  We've planted bush beans again, as we know they do well here in our garden, but our "slightly aging" backs are protesting, again!  I'm putting in a case for pole beans next year!!
Yellow squash in the foreground, peppers, tomatoes, beans, then kids and the Garden Master.
Green Peppers
My little turkeys, they're taller than the tomatoes this time!
First two rows of beans are up and happy!  You can see the strings to the left showing the beans that have just been planted.  We're hoping to grow enough to last us the whole year!   

Closest: yellow squash, Middle: Zucchini, Farthest: Cucumber.  Almost all of our squash plants died last year before producing any fruit, dratted squash beetle! Hopefully this will be a happier squash year!!
