The Potatoes Are Coming! The Potaotes Are Coming!

The weather has been pretty weird around here these past few week. Sometimes it's sunny and then it starts to rain and then it gets warm and really muggy feeling. I don't like that it changes so much but our plants sure seem to enjoy it! This past weekend we left to go see some family and when we came back the potato plants had easily doubled in size...maybe even tripled! All of the other plants went nuts too growing twice as big as before. I guess we should leave town more often, our plants seem to like to grow when they're alone.

Here is what the potato looked like before we left:

And this is what it looked like when we came home:
Here are what the flowers looked like before we left:
Here is the same pot once we got home:

Here is a picture of our hanging baskets...they have been growing a lot!
And here are some strawberry plants we got this weekend (THANKS JOANN!)
I can't wait to watch them grow and eat some yummy strawberries!
(They still need a little more soil but I'm working on it :) )

Look like you guys have green thumbs. That is so cute, you little farmers!!! Ha!
Enjoy the fruits of your harvest.
Love you both lots and lots. Don't work and study too hard.
