Rain, rain, go away!

It rained all last week and I was pretty worried that the garden was going to drown! We got about 3 inches of rain. However, the plants seem pretty happy and have grown a whole bunch, as you can see! We had a busy weekend, with a birthday party for our goddaughter Delaney, and an engagement party for our friends, Hugh and Meredith, so we didn't get a chance to do anything in the yard this week.
It is supposed to get cold this coming week, so I am going to have to cover up the plants to make sure we don't have to start over. I forgot to get a picture of the eggplant, which has grown a lot. You'll have to wait for next week!

Herbs:

Green Pepper:


Tomato Plant:



Zucchini:

Corn:


Cucumber:



Beans:




You can finally see plants in the garden! Give it another couple of weeks and it will be even greener! I can't wait.



I also took a few pictures around the yard to show some of the other plants that are growing:

Banana tree (the frost got the first leaf):



Morning glories (planted from seed):


First leaf on the fig tree:


The azaleas are in full bloom:





The muscadine grapevine that I transplanted from the front of the yard:






We bought this cypress tree at Cypress Gardens the year we got married. It's getting really big! It just put out its leaves.
