Garden fun with Big E

     Today daddy took little E to spend some time with her great aunt. She loves going, and it gives me some time with Big E. We cleared out the patty pan squash and covered it with some organic matter so that it can break down over the fall. Once the transplants are bigger it will house the brassicas (cabbage, brocolli, and cauliflower). We will just move a little to make a hole, throw in some good dirt, plant and cover the hole back with the organic matter. The hope is that it will put nutrients in the soil over the fall. We may also put in some bone meal since we did grow here all Spring and Summer.

     Then we had some good ole fun. When he was little he'd take my yarn scraps (the bits I would cut off for one reason or another) and make "yarn men". He found some yarn today and we made some together for old times sake. We positioned them all around.

     He placed one on the pumpkin in silly positions. 

     Then he used some random odds and ends little E has placed on the porch "to make stuff" with. He made an entir scene with a little family relaxing out in the sun.

     We wrapped it up by heading inside from the heat and playing Super Smash Bros. Melee. He is entering a tournament for high school and under at the local community  college at the beginning of September. Bless his heart he tried to teach me and well let's just say I may be a hopeless case.

Happy Ggardening everyone!
