The garden is doing well! We are grateful that God allowed us to have a yard with a garden. Thanks to the regular rains, we do not have to water it much now. That helps with the water bill! We still hope to buy some maize (corn) seeds and some regular tomatoes, but what is planted is growing fast.
The small corner that the children planted is starting to produce yellow squash and there are a few blossoms on the cherry tomato plants. We picked two of the yellow squash today.
The rest of the garden is as follows: At the bottom of the picture (in front of Joshua) are the cucumbers. We are looking forward to pickles! Yikes! I need to start on them this week! Behind Joshua are the cherry tomato plants. There are some blossoms and a few tiny tomatoes. If all those plants produce like cherry tomato plants normally do, we will have LOTS! I think I will be sending the kids out to the garden to pick their own snacks. On the other side of the garden (in front of Becky) are the squash plants. I'm pretty sure all of these are zucchini. We have picked and eaten some of these already. If you find zucchini on your doorstep, well... Beside Caleb is the lettuce. It is starting to form heads. We are looking forward to lots of healthy eating!

After eating, we sangs a few hymns of thanksgiving, shared praises and read some verses reminding us to be thankful and give our praises to God. We also played some games and just had a great time fellowshipping.
