Summer is nearing an end…

Nikki, our neighbor, snapped these pics in the front yard.

Sarah was here for Reed’s very first soccer practice.  We laughed.  A lot.

Headed off to her first summer camp.  Trike Theater’s Percy Jackson.  She was super nervous…  cried at drop off…

… by the end of the week, my little goddess was so sad for it to be over!

This little tree has grown a lot since we planted it!

Swallow-tail number 2!

Look at their chrysalids – one was green, on a living green stem when made, the other was brown, built on a brown branch.

We had swallowtail caterpillars running out of our ears, and very little host plant  left, so we made a trip to the garden section to buy more host plants.  When we got there, we discovered the seedlings for sale were covered with their own caterpillars!  The cashier was very interested in the whole thing, so she told the kids to pick off the caterpillars to take to our yard, and take several free parsley plants with them!
