Twin Green Thumbs

Whenever we visit Chris' parents, I enjoy walking through their beautiful garden, especially in the summer when there are plentiful tomatoes, zucchini and cucumbers to take in. I'm definitely not alone in this - on a recent trip, Ryan and Lucie also loved to admire (and eat!) from their Grandma and Grandpa's garden.

R & L had a ball collecting vegetables in baskets, assisting/supervising plant watering, and picking apples. While apple eating was fun, the washing of apples with the garden hose definitely ranked higher in their minds. Now every time we talk about apples (a topic that actually comes up a lot with these guys) they say, "Wash! Wash!", hoping I'll pull out a garden hose just like Grandma.

Oh, to be a toddler in the summer time & learning the ropes (or in this case, the hose!) from grandma and grandpa. L & R have a birthday coming up or has it passed? Wow, two years old.
