We have been enjoying some strawberries from our garden and last week we finally had enough ripe at one time to make a strawberry rhubarb pie. It was delicious! Here are some pictures of Mark's masterpiece.

All that was left after we brought it to our friend's house
Next week we will be making another pie, it probably won't last long! Our garden is continuing to grow, it has been enjoying all the rain we received recently. It is fun to watch the plants mature, even though we don't know what will be ready before we move out.
The first bell pepper
Tomatoes
Spinach...not sure how it will taste with all this hot weather
Green beans
Flowers
Our snake friend, he didn't want to stop and pose for a picture. He is about to hide in our compost box.
It is easy to be impatient after planting a garden and want results right away. Gardening can teach us not only patience, but to remember to watch for beauty and little changes along the way. Each step of growth is important and should be celebrated.
