Evan’s flower garden is looking quite beautiful! His excitement over these flowers is overruling his despair over the fact that the peppers just aren’t growing well.

We made peach pie this week using peaches from our very own peach tree. This is the first year we’ve had peaches on it. In fact, it’s so loaded that one of the branches broke off. I’m not sure if our lack in peaches in previous years was due to the youth of the tree or weather that just wasn’t quite right.

On the other hand, this is not the year of the apple, nor was last. I was thinking maybe the apple trees produced every other year, but once again we have just one measly apple! Other years, we’ve had hundreds. I have yet to figure out this fruit tree thing.
