The heat and the rain have been CRAZY here lately… while we may not have enjoyed it, the plants sure have!

This video was just a few days later… the change is CRAZY!
We hope you are all having a BLESSED end of summer and we pray that GOD will continue to supply your needs!
I love that I can come up with an idea in my head, put it down on paper, and Mr. Awesome can make it come to life! He has done this time and time again… just AMAZING! My Ube plants were going crazy and starting to take over the greenhouse so I needed to make a place for them to grow. I didn’t have a lot of money to put towards this as our bathroom really needs attention so we spent less than $100 on materials and I scavenged the scrap piles for materials.
While this isn’t exactly as I had planned, as we couldn’t find the lumber I had planned for, it is pretty close and just as AWESOME. I wanted a couple of beds for planting as this area is close to the septic and I didn’t want to take any chances with contaminated food but I also wanted to screen the backyard a little bit as we have a couple of sheds in this area. The solution was two trellis beds with a cattle panel arch to act as an ‘entry’ to the backyard area. It may also prove to be a pretty backdrop for pictures!
Hey y’all… time is flying by so fast!
I’ve posted a new garden video on YouTube with the link below but I’ll try to show you a few pictures here as well.
We’ve been super busy and I haven’t had a chance to check in but all is well here.
We’ve been working super hard in our gardens and yard and the work is paying off as we’ve been eating quite a bit of fresh fruits and veggies that we’ve grown.
Here are a few pics that we’ve taken recently… maybe more than a few but we like sharing progress!
We had a great time watching the Solar Eclipse even though we didn’t experience totality. The kiddos did their Morning Circle Routine and then watched a couple of lessons about the eclipse. Then they had a quick lunch as they were so excited to get out and watch for the eclipse.
