ladybugs

Tonight my mom came over to help us release some ladybugs into our backyard - on our rose and other flower bushes to be precise.  Ladybugs are a natural pesticide, since they eat aphids.  The girls were pretty excited, although Norah got freaked out once the ladybugs were released from their plastic tub.

the ladybugs are thirsty once they are released, so all the plants needed to be thoroughly watered beforehand

ladybugs everywhere!
