It Just Keeps Getting Bigger and Bigger!

"That's a Baby Boo"

My son is taking his over-ripe squash to school for show-and-tell.



These pumpkin plants (above and below) are volunteer pumpkins. The above plant is growing in our flower garden. I am not expecting too much from that plant because it is in a mostly shaded area. The growth has been minimal.

The below plant is growing beside my porch railing. The sun is just right. There is poison ivy growing beside it, so the weed killer may get it.



A couple of the first ripe tomatoes!



We found a ripe one!


Look how tall the tomato plants are! They have barely begun producing. We're going to have tomatoes coming out of our ears!


The pumpkin patch continues to grow. Mother and I were talking and agree that they are probably going to double or triple yet!


Here is a gourd. This one looks different than the last couple we've seen! It'll be fun checking out the different varieties we planted.



This is my Cinderella Pumpkin. It's growing on a trellis in hopes of saving the peppers and tomatoes from suffocation!

Here is our Cinderella Pumpkin. We have some others but this one is currently changing colors, so I featured it. It was a cream color and is now quite golden. This pumpkin will turn dark orange, almost red when ripe.



Here is our first Sweet Sugar Pie pumpkin. We hope to can these and use them for muffins and pies.



Our sunflowers are in full swing. Isn't the above sunflower lovely and unique?



My son is picking and eating blackberries. Next week we're going to have more than we can eat!
