Ginger Baby!

 It's alive!!!!!  The ginger we planted here finally grew!  We noticed it late last week but I wanted to wait to share the good news until we knew for sure that it wasn't just something the squirrels planted for us.  Those squirrels......
This is something those squirrels (or chipmunks) did for us.  They "helped" us eat the lettuce we planted.  I have so many words but none of them appropriate.  They did not seem to like the dark lettuce as much as the other types because that was left until last and part of it is still there.  At least the lettuce grows back when devoured trimmed.  You can see that the plant in the front is already coming back.  

In other news we are in serious talks about adopting a Sheltland Sheepdog named Annie.  Our friend has to get rid of hers so as long as the kids don't freak when they meet her she will become a member of the family.  I hope it all works out.

  2. I know! I was flabbergasted it seemed to take forever to come up though so if you try it be ready to wait it out.
