Gus throwing a fit

Gus loves to organize, show off, and play with his toys. Sometimes he stacks them, sometimes he piles them, sometimes he throws them at us. Tonight, one of his favorite toys went missing. We have no clue where he hid his chicken leg and neither does he. He threw a 15 minute fit which ended in him throwing himself on the floor and making a poofing noise. It was absolutely hilarious! 

Here are a few of his toys in his room.


 Here is Gus showing me his toys.

And...here is Gus pouting because he can not find his chicken leg.

Gus in the morning

When I headed downstairs yesterday morning, this is what I saw on the couch. Must have been a rough night for Gus!

Garden Flop

This was the first year, in my entire life, that my garden flopped. I know what happened but I really thought things would perk back up.
What was the culprit you ask?

WATER

The garden has been flooded just like the many crops in the area.

I was able to harvest some of my tomatoes in June. With the icky weather in March and April, I decided to plant a few tomato plants from seed and they worked. It was really nice not having to purchase tomatoes this summer.

But alas, I am extremely low on my tomato count now and not sure what I am going to do for canning and salsa.

Here was the crop harvested this past week. Usually I have 10 times this amount.
