Grapes and the garden

Last summer we planted grapes in our courtyard. It yielded one tiny bunch of maybe 6-7 grapes. We decided against trimming them back over the winter season and are glad we let them be. They came back with a vengeance this season! It has been really cool to watch the progression. We started seeing little bunches pop up everywhere at the end of March and early April. About 3 weeks ago they started looking a little bigger and are now even bigger than that! I haven't taken any photos of them this week but here are some from April 1st and then about 2 weeks ago.

 Sadie likes sitting in this bucket that I use for photo shoots. You can see how tiny the grapes were then. Look closely and you will see the little bunches right by her head!


 Checking out the grapes
 Lately she has been pretending to be a baby and does that silly thing with her tounge-it drives me crazy!

The shots below were taken the 1st or 2nd week of May


 These bunches are just everywhere! It's so cool!

Can't believe how massive they are!
