Golden days of summer season :) hi angel friends! :) my family, Holly, and i hope everyone is doing well, healthy,and enjoying a nice day, and a peaceful weekend :) Holly and i enjoyed our popcorn movies day yesterday :) during the evening, we went outside into our front yard, and my mom came outside with us :) She was sitting on our front steps :) it was nice, checking out our flowers, and being outside a bit during the evening :) Last night, Holly and i had some nice veggies and popcorn bowls, with pretzels, and watched the classic, "Space Jam" movie :) we love that movie, and we want to watch the new movie sometime too :)We're having a peaceful sunday and weekend :) Holly and i are having a TWD marathon today :) only 2 more weeks, until the big arrival of TWD, season 11 :) i cooked some zuchinni with pasta sauce,and multi-grain pasta for lunch/dinner :) We're looking forward to lots more summer times to share in as the new week arrives, and the season continues on :) Lots more nature, gardening, and seasonal festivities :)


it's a really nice weekend :) This morning, we had a nice good new day, rising and shining :) we all got good rest last night :) my dad was home from work shortly after 9pm :) i was up early this morning, enjoying some nice time here on DS, writing to friends, and getting ready for my early morning nature walk :) We did recieve some rain overnight,and have had some rain in our forecast for today. The plants soak up the rain, and helps them continue to super mega grow :) We've been enjoying the summer gardening season, so very much, with lots of gardening, nature moments, and harvesting fresh garden goodies :) it's one of my favorite joys going outside early, and seeing the continued growing progress of our plants :) i gathered a big bowl of goodies this morning and went outside for my nature walk :) it's super neat to see, our huge tall sunflowers, towering in the garden :) we're loving seeing them super mega grow toward the sky :) One of the tallest sunflowers we have ,is one i found near where our old greenhouses use too be, my dad cleaned that area in the spring time ,and i remember shortly after, a sunflower sprouted in the grass area, and i transplanted it into the garden, and now it's grown to nearly 9 feet tall :) incredible! :) i put lots of goodies in our backyard, for our nature friends :) they love gathering the goodies :) i hope to take some pictures of the golden finches this upcoming week, the finches have been enjoying some sunflower seeds in our garden :)



All of our plants, grapevines, and fruit trees are doing awesome :) yesterday,Holly and i each tried some grapes, they are ripening, turning purple color :) the grapes are delicious :) We'll continue to pick some as the month goes on :) we have lots of tomatoes growing :) We'll be picking some fresh vine ripened tomatoes soon, to make homemade salsa, and my mom and dad love cherry tomatoes, and slices of tomatoes on sandwiches :) it's a really big time for harvesting fresh garden goodies :) Holly and i are gonna be making more pickled banana peppers :) We're seeing lots and lots of banana peppers growing :) Each time we pick some, there's so many more growing that are ready to be picked within 3 to 4 more days :) it's awesome! :) We've picked a total of 40 banana peppers so far, and lots more to look forward too picking :) We picked a huge green bell pepper for my mom and dad, and a zuchinni too :) They love zuchinni, and yellow squash, they want me to fry some for them soon :) The string beans, and snap peas are growing wild :) i think each day now, we'll be picking string beans, the rest of the season :) The plants have done so very well this year :) Holly and i changed up our gardening landscape a bit this year, when it comes to the position of the plants :) Last year, we had tons of tomato plants close to the string beans plants, and for some reason, the string beans didn't grow well, but this year, we spread those plants out more, and they're growing wild :) We're very happy :)



We'll be picking some more cucumbers ,and also lots more yellow squash soon :) we have lots of popcorn cobs growing, and jalapeno peppers too :) Holly and i picked some jalapeno peppers last year :) this year, we'd love to pickle some more maybe, with sugar in the brine ,to lower the spicyness level of the peppers :) We're gonna be harvesting lots more goodies all throughout the rest of the season :) our pumpkins, and gourds plants are doing well :) We're on pumpkins and gourds watch now ,each day, to see if any are beginning to grow :) We have lots of beautiful sunflowers, morning glory flowers, daisies, and other flowers blossoming :) as i write this, i hear some happy bluejays outside here :) We love those sounds of nature :) we've had some small butterflies in our garden, they land on the daisies flowers, they are super small butterflies :) Holly and i love taking in the nature moments :) We're seeing so many happy flowers blossoming, our zinnia's, petunia's, marigolds, and lots more :) Holly and i are very proud of the gardening we did yesterday, we pulled lots of weeds, freshening up our garden :) It's so nice, to see our garden looking refreshed, and all of our plants very happy :) Holly and i hope to make another 10 to 15 jars of pickled banana peppers :) We'd love to put some of the peppers away for the fall, and winter :) it be like having a taste of the garden, during those cooler months of the year :) We love our plants, yard, and garden, and are looking forward to lots more gardening as the season goes on :) happy nature, and garden season smiles :)

Hi Chris and Holly. I love your bachelor button flowers. They were always my favorite flower but I can't plant them because the deer love them!!

I hope you get a picture of the finches. We have a nest of red finches right outside our kitchen window. We have enjoyed watching them and their little ones. I am guessing the little ones will be leaving the nest pretty soon. We still aren't allowed to feed the birds snd I miss watching them. But at least we can feed the hummingbirds.

You and Holly enjoy your TWD tv night.

Hugs
John and Debbie
