Harvesting Sweet Potatoes, Tomatoes, and a Couple Peppers for Wordless Wednesday
I haven't participated in Wordless Wednesday for awhile, and even then, did not link in, because I wasn't sure who the host was, and even though I discovered it awhile back, don't remember now. Oops! I just wrote some words!

Well, it's certainly true...a picture is worth a thousand words! This series of photos really tells a neat story!
ReplyDeleteI see that you have with you a great gardener, he's so cut.
ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable garden helper! He looks like he had lots of fun! Those sweet potatoes look great!!
ReplyDeleteLove that little gardener/helper! Perfect pictures requiring no words at all.
ReplyDeleteThis has a huge smile on my face. To see the three of you gardening together is wonderful. Your little helper is having a blast, and great memories are being made.
ReplyDeleteYour sweet potatoes look great.

Oh....the photo of him with his hands in the dirt digging for potatoes is priceless. You are creating wonderful memories that he'll carry with him forever.
ReplyDeleteGreat looking spuds!

Sue,
ReplyDeleteWish we had help like that little guy in the garden! Those sweet potatoes look so yummy!
Nothing gets much sweeter than a little guy in the garden!
ReplyDeleteYou have some really good help, I love to have children in the garden.One day I was picking radishes with a boy across the street and we each would exclaim,"Look at this one",with each large radish. He turned and pulled a brocolli and exclaimed,"Look at this one." Couldn't get mad with the funny thoughts how he maybe thought we were getting the biggest plant.Like the next to last shot, I encouraged my kids to get into the dirt.
ReplyDeleteIt just melts my heart to see you and your grandson in the garden together. What a lot of fun!
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome little gardener you have there to help with the harvest!
ReplyDeleteDear Sue, That is an impressive harvest for the time of year ... mine is really winding down and I have only carrots, parsnips, onions and some herbs left. I think gardening is doubly wonderful with the help of a grandchild. Yours is adorable! The pictures made my day. Pam x
ReplyDeleteI love that shot of your grandson on his tummy, digging in the dirt with his hands, and the one showing his sweet potato harvest on a small shovel. Those are so cute, making gardening memories.
ReplyDeleteI loved digging potatoes with my grandmother back when I was kid and still remember the joy of finding THE BIG ONE. I LOVE your foliage follow-up post. Such beautiful textures. You really have a nice garden. Blessings to your family!

That will make a priceless memory for your grandson. You have some good produce there. Enjoy your spuds...
ReplyDeleteLove the pic where he's up to his elbows in dirt. Funny!

oh hey, just found you. Coincidence, too, because 3 yr old granddaughter and I "planted" garden this evening, October 21. I planted radishes as the warm weather has been holding in Iowa and I have a protected/sheltered garden. I gave her the old package of cilantro when she asked to plantseeds. "This is so fun", she said. more than once. And scattered the seed, stirred the soil and watered. I'll be back!
ReplyDeleteSue those photos are too" cute! Your grandson looks sweeter than those sweet potatoes.
ReplyDeleteI love sweet potatoes, I'll have to try my hand at growing them next year.
Your blog makes me Happy! So I'm passing you a Happy award..
Such precious photos! You'll look back on them with pleasure when your grandson is a strapping six-footer!
ReplyDeleteDoes it get any better than THIS??? My favorites? The one where he's carrying the 3 potatoes on his shovel and the other where he's lying down in the dirt....
ReplyDeleteBTW - I've really enjoyed fixing our sweet potatoes (scrubbed and cut up) in the crock pot with a little chicken broth or bouillon in the pot. I'll often add pieces of link sausage or maybe a bell pepper, too. The potatoes get SO tender.
Oh what a wonderful almost wordless story. Words weren't needed to see the joy of that harvest.
ReplyDeleteThat was wonderful - this series of photos are great. I felt like I was there with you :-)
