Dainty

Mamma and her babies



Cute little dainty flowers. Any idea what they are?




Chickweed! Aren't they beautiful when they are not in your garden?

Master Chef and Puppies

The chef's newest creation:


Ingredients: Bakery bread, no butter, half a fresh strawberry, one blueberry, 1/4 of a ripe banana, and half a lemon cookie!


Mmmmm delicious!




Pretending she is a puppy like King. Most of the week she called him Kingdom!


H2O Paint

Savannah wanted to help paint the porch at the farm. So, we invented H2O paint for her to use. It worked perfectly in an antique Beehive Syrup can. She put several coats on the steps and door over the week we were there. A great way to keep her entertained and "helping" us!



Beauty

There's nothing more beautiful than a healthy field of wheat and a curious child.




Snowmen in August!

Savannah does not like to eat potatoes, unless of course, they are the fry variety. These, however, caught her attention and her appetite. It's funny what a little fun can do to your tastes! Notice the fresh garden pea eyes and fresh garden carrot noses. Mmmmm, yummy "snowmen."



Roadside Attraction

These were in a ditch, I believe in Manitoba.
They are called Brown Eyed Susans





So sweet



This is Goldenrod with one of a million flies that were enjoying the nectar!

"During"

This was a couple weeks ago, but I wanted to leave a bit of space between the "before" and "during" posts. Of course, it is still not done, but much better. "After" coming soon!



You can see some of the plants now! Still lots of work, but at least they can see the light somewhat!



A lot of the garden plants are very tiny, but you can see the beans in these photos.



My "crew." They did a great job while they were focused on the weeds.




See the weed piles at the front of the photo?
