How does my garden grow?

Really well if I do say so myself.  I've never grown broccoli before and it looks great.  I planted pumpkin seeds last weekend and they are already coming up.  In fact it looks so good, I figured I'd better write this blog before something bad happens in the garden.

As of last weekend, I have planted all the vegetables I want to grow this year.
However, I looked outside this morning and found four more pots than were there yesterday.
Turns out that while Emily is spending the week with us her herbs are visiting too.  

A different view of the garden.
The cement block bed is for the pumpkins.
Over on the left, the biggest round bed is full of squash plants.
Mike told me just today that green beans would have been a better choice than squash.  Oops!

I was shocked to see my pumpkin plants breaking through the soil.
I only planted them seven days ago.  
My first broccoli plant.
They say you can eat the leaves too.
I will have to Google recipes.
