Do you know how hard it is to get these three to take a decent picture together?
Nathaniel started work on a tree house for the kids. They are so excited.
And in gardening news, I've had great success with broccoli and brussel sprout seedlings, but I didn't have any tomatoes popping up. I was seriously considering starting over, when a few days ago:
And more have sprouted since this one. I've got a few seedlings for Better Boy, Brandywine, and Kellogg's breakfast tomatoes. I've also got a few cherry tomatoes. I'm so very happy! I still will probably buy some plants at the farmer's market in May, but at least I've got some tomatoes already growing, and since I used seeds leftover from last year, they are free!
Since the squirrels attacked the strawberry plants, I transplanted a few of the broccoli seedlings into the empty strawberry beds:
I'll monitor those and see if squirrels also like broccoli plants before I decide if I'll plant more there. I've still got most of the seedlings in the playroom.
