It is such a beautiful day that we don't want to spend it inside. So, we go out to check out the Ayers' garden.

Check out the eggplants!

Ella loves the mulch pile.

Jill loves the field of butternut squash.

Someone finds an Ella-sized gourd...
Careful!

Good girl.

Wouldn't you like to be a pepper, too?

Ben picks butterbeans

and hands them out to the girls.

Ella hasn't had veggies off the vine before and loves it.

Carmala looks used to it. That is really cool!

That afternoon, Carmala gets her violin lesson.

She's really good.

Jill and I are super impressed!
