It's the day the kids have been waiting for...THE HARVEST. Now, the beans were ready right on schedule, and the kids couldn't have been more excited. We'll see if we get anything else out of the garden. The cucumbers are still growing, along with the carrots, but I'm not sure about the onions, broccoli, and pumpkins (ok, pretty sure we'll get nowhere with the pumpkins).
Luke could barely wait for Madison to get home from school before picking the harvest.
Searching for beans
They were determined to find any and all beans.
Some of the beans were really big!
Grandma and Grandpa came Friday afternoon too. They were here to see the kids' soccer games the next mornig and were also able to participate in the harvest.
The bean crop...not too bad for four bean plants and planting them several months too late.
About an hour later...the harvest in different form. Luckily, we had enough beans for three servings for the kids. The kids loved them!
It was a beautiful afternoon, and during dinner, a storm blew through. Literally, it blew our patio table off the patio and really had a strong wind. It only lasted about 15 minutes, but it was a crazy little storm. Afterwards, Dad and I were outside picking up the patio table and chairs (it knocked the heavy rocker chair off the patio too), when I saw this rainbow. It went the full distance, and the kids were able to view it in its entirety.
