Growing like weeds.......

This past week the Wingerter Household has been very busy. Andy is training for another triathlon for the end of August here in Chicago. It is the largest triathlon in the world! There will be over 8,000 athletes that will compete. They swim in Lake Michigan downtown, bike on Lakeshore Drive and run along the lake and Michigan Ave. We met up last weekend with some of our friends at one of the beaches and the men swam and ran, while the ladies and the kids hung out at the beach. We had a really good time and we plan to do it again this weekend.

The garden is growing well, including the weeds! So far we have picked well over 15 cucumbers, 10 squash, 10 banana peppers, 5 zucchini, 2 green tomatoes (fried) and one lonely red tomato, (which wasn't ripe yet, but I needed it for burgers). I am right now in the process of pickling the cucumbers, I will let you all know how they turn out. Don't be surprised if this is your Christmas gift! I am becoming best friends with all the neighbors, (garden girl), with all the veggies I am giving away. Hopefully I will get some zucchini bread in return!

The best for last.... Reid is 2 months old, and growing like a weed as well!! I will leave you with pictures of him and his buddy.
