We spend our afternoons catching these little ladies...
Emma is just plain fascinated with them.
We catch them in the unoccupied fields by our house. We pick wildflowers there too.
The little ladybugs crawl all over Emma, and she just loves it. Catching them is like therapy :)
I have these in my front yard, and they are growing pretty well.
Although I am wishing that I had all of these colors...so pretty. I probably should have bought them at the Strawberry Farm, but I didn't.
After we catch the ladybugs, we release them into our vegetable garden.
Which is growing too...
We've got squash, zucchini, cucumber, pepper and tomato blossoms.
We catch frogs too.
Emma just loves that too.
But don't let the bugs and frogs fool ya. She catches them in her sparkle shoes with skinned up legs :)
And Buddy just does his very own thing...
I love his little chunky legs :)
Here's three shots of Miss Emma...
And let's not forget Sunshine...
I hope y'all are enjoying your green grass, ladybugs, frogs, and the garden. Minus the Zyrtec, Claritin, and Alavert, we certainly are :)

Emily is also in-love with all insects and amphibians! We actually spent most of Saturday digging for and playing with worms! ha :)
thanks girls! we need rain too, so don't be too jealous...it's the sprinkler system at work :) you can buy ladybugs at our local nursery, but they are 10 bucks for a bag...i told emma we could catch our own for free :) emma loves worms too...i wonder how long it will be until they squeal like little girls at worms?
