I love my garden, it's huge! I haven't had to purchase any fresh veggies for weeks and weeks...we even overcame an infestation, we used 1500 ladybugs to clear it up!! Here are some pics! (i just realized the date on my camera is wrong, i took these yesterday!)

Looks great!  I myself just came home from my clients house where harvested 6 different kinds of tomatoes, japanese cucumbers, eggplant, basil and a few strawberries.  Got to love summer!

That is awesome girl.  I had a garden and it turned into a jungle.  Those squash can take over.  So, I planted them in pots this year.  I have had a bunch of flowers and only two squash.  I have like 8 pots, all the seeds came up, but no production yet. 

It looks really healthy.

Cool! I love the photo of your daughter holding the yellow squash. looks like she's saying, my squash! No touchy!

 Wish i could have a garden. The dirt around here is very hard to grow in so you basically have to build a box above the ground and fill it with potting soil. I prefer less effort and settlign with a few petunias and marigolds.
