The Big News... Little Pumpkin!

 
It's true, we have one little pumpkin!  I didn't search too hard,
I didn't want to stir up the mosquitoes.

 
I have at least one zucchini too.  (in the top left hand corner)

 
The vines are crawling across the lawn. 


 
Remember the green Envy Zinnias I planted from seed ?...


 
Just one flower refuses to be like the others and
popped up orange with a red and yellow center.
Really cool!

 
 I wanted to show you this old boot with wire vine.
It is growing so lush and full. I just love these small successes...
Seriously, isn't everyday in a garden a success?

Be safe my friends. Today's temp will be well into the 90's.
 Water, water and more water is my advise for today...yourself and your garden! ;-)
Have a great weekend and thanks for stopping by

I thought maybe another grandchild was on their way, hah, but a little pumpkin is good too, hah.
Way too hot. We had a storm but we seem to be just barely missing the bad ones. They were saying that winds were 60 mph in our county. Our trees were not moving. As long as we keep our a/c. (((((HUGS))))

Oh my, . . . love the little pumpkin and the boot with the vine. And the Zinnias are such a delight. I agree, we are each finding our own personal delights around our yards and gardens!

Pumpkin and zucchini, what else do you want . It will get better next times I am sure. Love that boot.

Just like Debby, at first when I saw your blog title, I thought maybe you were expecting another grandchild! Oh well, the little pumpkin on your vine sure is cute, too. :-)

Good to feel cooler temps today, right? Have a wonderful weekend and hope to talk to you or see you soon!
