Last week, Cole and I went out to check on our tomato plant and noticed the leaves were missing on several of the branches. Upon closer inspection we discovered.... the tobacco hornworm! And not just one, but ten! The kids picked them off one by one, and dropped them into a bucket of soapy water. A few more days and that tomato plant would have been no more.

Sneak Peek
Final installation of the mirrors/art is scheduled for tomorrow, yay! After that, the only remaining item will be for Stew to wall-mount the TV. Almost done!

Bookworm
Lauren can't stop reading these days. Thanks for the Nancy Clancy book, Emily & Amy! We just checked out a fresh batch of books at the library. And Lauren has one book 'in progress' in each of our cars, for reading during the 5-minute trip to/from school :)

Just Peachy
Skipped the frozen berries in this smoothie... :) Just frozen peaches, some frozen mango, orange juice, coconut milk, and a bit of fresh grated ginger. The texture was very Jamba Juice-like.
