First of all, "Monicas"'s "hairs" look fantastic! Second, I just love how when it comes to all things gardening, Monica defers to you, but when it comes to cooking, she's so confident and lights up. Just a fun video to watch!

I bet that sauce would be good on chicken wings.And your right Mom gave both girls confidence.

I love seeing your whole family together. It brought tears to my eyes. I’m going on 82 and most of my family is gone, parents, hubby,son and we don’t have family gatherings now. I still have a daughter and granddaughter to love dearly, but they don’t live close. I love your beautiful gardens and your family. Thanks for sharing them with all of us, young and old. They brighten my day and I imagine myself sitting there enjoying it all. Love and prayers to all of you and hugs to the littles. ❤😊

Her "Hairs" are awesome. I love the color on her. She & her hairs really brighten up & stand out.

Monica's hairs look lovely! I'm so glad she is willing to participate in your channel. She really adds a lot of charm and energy.

Pedro & his team are Stone Whisperers - their stone placement is just indescribable. The thought put into every detail is such true craftsmanship! My husband is a 3rd generation contractor, and detail detail detail has always been their watchword.

Monica's haircut has such movement & looks so good on her. I get so intrigued looking at the walkways & how the stones fit together. Pedro & the crew are just amazing! This entire video was so uplifting

You and Monica should do a cooking episode every month.... I love her and your mom! Thanks for sharing them with us and thank you Monica and Susan for being good sports and being in the videos occasionally!!

Ok, my first reaction when I say Monica's hair " OH MY GOSH, she looks like her Mom!" Nice change! The stone walkway is gorgeous, that pepper sauce looks dangerous, and the family dinner... FABULOUS! Have a great day everyone!

What a fun video! The stone pathways and patio are stunning; Pedro is clearly an artist. Loved watching you and Monica cook together but I couldn’t touch that hot sauce with a ten-foot pole! And any video with your lovely mom, Susan, (or any of your family for that matter) is always a joy to watch. I think Aaron said in the last Highlight channel video that cooking is an extension of gardening and this video certainly proves that point. You can upload cooking videos any time you like, IMO! 💚

Start your morning off with three beautiful ladies and a sweet little girl!! Plus,Laura's beautiful pond area ,her vegetable garden,her flower garden, and her fruit trees. I LOVE Monica's new hair style!!

Samantha Grace skipping around so happy always makes the videos. Monica's hair is so cute! Your mom and you choking on the hobanaro's fumes made me lol. I love these videos. This is where the garden goes!🍅🫑🥒🥕🧅

Monica’s hair looks fantastic! I also thinks she looks more like mom now, which is a very good thing as mom is beautiful!

Wow! You must tell Monica how absolutely beautiful is her new hair cut & color! I really like seeing her in your videos....she just has a great personality just like you and your Mom.💓

🦋Wow. Fabulous work done by Pedro and his Team. Many many memories will continue to be made here. And so fun to see Susan and Monica again! Thank you Laura, for another great start to the week. 👏🏻🌻🐠🌶💚

Monicus' hairs are gorgeous!! Pedro and his team are so skilled-everything they've done in your gardens is just pure magic!

Thank you so much for including us in the family time at the end and having such a wholesome piece of content for us to enjoy with you all! Plus Pedro’s stone work and beautiful touring. Nothing like watching the newest Garden answer video with a coffee in hand ☕️ ❤

Love love your new hairs, Monicas!! It warms my heart so much to see you all cooking together then having dinner as a family. Appreciate you letting us come along too. Your harvest is always so impressive and inspiring!😊

That pond area has turned out so beautiful! I keep thinking of how hesitant Laura was in taking out the boxwoods in that area. Just think if she hadn’t that pond wouldn’t even be there. I bet now everyday she is so glad she did it. So happy it brings you and your family so much joy❣️

We so enjoy your video inviting us into your family activities. Monica’s hair style looks “wow” on her! I almost didn’t recognize her at first; but love the weave and cut! I must agree with others and your hubby that your cooking videos is an extension of your gardening! You must encourage Monica to join you in more of your cooking videos; she’s really in her element. You two should think about writing a cookbook “From Garden to Table” with a subtitle “Recipes from our Family to Yours”. Laura, everyone should be so fortunate to have such a strong loving family and bond! Thank you for sharing!

Monica’s hair is so pretty! I loved seeing her lead the project, too. She’s a natural in front of the camera! ❤️

Loved the video this morning! The stone pathway is so beautiful. What a bountiful harvest! Monica’s hair is so darn cute! Thanks for sharing!

One of your pallet walkways around your pond would be perfect! Monica looks so pretty! Not that she didn’t before, but the new hairs is beautiful on her!

Love Monica’s hair!! She is looking great!!

Yep! Im with Monica on this one. Hot n spicy food is my thing too. If you're reading this Monica, that new colour and modern style hair cut really suits you. You look absolutely stunning!💜

Monica's hair and makeup is just stunning 😍 We need an update from Monica's new backyard garden though, please please please 😁

Monica's haircut is adorable. She looks so much like you. You both look like Mom. You guys have the most beautiful hair!!!

Good morning, gorgeous harvest! Go Samantha Grace, eat that carrot, dirt and all. She will be as healthy as her mom😊. I just love how children don’t mine a little dirt at all. Happy Fall Gardening everyone.

The pathway & seating area around the pond looks gorgeous! BTW "oh great, fruit snacks" is SO relatable!! 😂

You know, I will admit when Lauren & Aaron finally decided to tear up that very peaceful quiet garden area; I was very sad to see it removed because it was just very peaceful back there. But what those two have put in is even better than before!!!👏👏👏👏

Monica's new hairdo really suits her! Thanks for including us in your day. Very enjoyable video.

Yes, what DebbieR said. Don't ever scale back on the family portion of your vids. Ok. Love them ALL!❤

What a great video!! Family, harvesting, canning.... so wholesome. The pond area!! That is looking better and better each time there is an update.

Pedro and his crew are amazing at what they do! And so tidy; other than the fact that now there is a path and patio you would never know they had been there. The perfect addition to the area and your beautiful property.

Love Monica's hair! Stonework is beautiful. Canning videos are full of so much information and fun. Thank you for sharing ♥

Ok garden answer lovers….is it just me or would we love to see a cooking KZread channel from Monica & maybe have part time guests, Laura/Mom & family!!! I would do love that! Your love of gardening & her love of cooking!!! What do you think?! I love the idea!❤️

The pond area is stunning. That old boxwood hedge is a distant memory now. Awesome place to relax.

Such a fun video, I am glad I’m only halfway through! Monica’s new hairs is so pretty 😍 LOVED seeing the stone pathways by the pond and hearing the future plans! The veg garden is spectacular and I am so envious of the fruit harvest 👩‍🌾🥰

Monica should do a cookbook and include it in your merchandise offerings. She will have numerous sales from this fan base, just more sister helping sister!

Will you be going to your sister, Monica’s house, to check on how her garden project developed for this year? Discussing the good and bad points of her garden.

Laura's face and smile of complete excitement and satisfaction while she fills the gator with beautiful home grown food it makes me feel like I need to get in gear for planting fall seeds

1st. Loving the Monicas new hair-do! Very chic 😊 2nd. I was recently at Farmer's market, in my town, and our local CEO set up a stand to promote nutrition. They had made a peach salsa that was to die for. The lady said they set up weekly, and the local farmers always are donating the fresh ingredients for them to make healthy options to share with the public visiting the market. She gave us the recipe, but said it can just be googled online searching Peach Salsa. 🍑 10/10

Such abundance of rewards for your efforts! I'm jealous after watching you eat the melon. It looked perfect. Monica's hair looks great too. This was a great video!💕

The walkways are amazing-each stone placed precisely. Nice to be able to trust your contractors to do their job. Your garden haul was crazy big. And ending the video with kitchen time was perfect. PS-Monica’s hair looks great!

Everything is beautiful, I was wanting to throw out a idea for your pond area ,what about a small area so the kids can camp in the woods, just thinking out loud!

This video is a masterpiece with something for everyone, even a dash of fear from hot pepper fumes, ha. I loved Douglas greeting Susan with a swat. Monica's hair is transformational, so pretty!! But of course the stone walkways are the crowning jewel. Pedro's crew are true artists.

The stone path looks incredible. Monica's hair is beautiful and suits her very well. Mom's hair looks amazing and you Laura look lovely in that green shirt (definitely your color and it compliments your hair color too). Wonderful to see ya'll together ❤❤❤

Love, love the new stone pathway in the pond area. The area is stunning, I would sit out there every day all day. Beautiful harvest! The hot sauce turned out amazing. Love seeing your family all together. Of course growing, harvesting, cooking and eating the food you grow in your garden goes with your channel. Love that you share all of that with us. Then bringing friends and family over yo enjoy the food and gardens, that’s what it is all about. Your the best! Love watching every day to see what’s going on in your garden.

Habanero hot sauce sounds delicious! My husband started his own pepper farm, Burley Pepper Co, and is growing 65 different peppers right now, the majority of them for hot sauces. Thanks for another awesome video!

I smiled, I laughed, I cried. What a beautiful video. Thank you for letting us into parts of your lives.

Monica's new hair cut looks fabulous! The lighter color brightens her face. Simply Beautiful. Little Miss Unicorn Princess Samantha made me giggle! So much fun. Spanish rice was a go to recipe for my Mom. You always manage to bring back such warm memories for me. The sauce looks delicious although I might try it with a cooler pepper? I so enjoy the videos where you are able to use what you harvest to prepare a dish, can or a meal. Lovely to see your family come together like this. Making memories is what it's all about!

I love how you have SO many different styles, vibes, and ecosystems (in a sense) to your property with all of the changes you’ve made over the years, yet everything somehow seems to work together perfectly. 💚

Enjoyed this so much! Tacos, Mexican rice, salsa…warms my Texas heart! Monica’s hair is perfect…and a little spice in the air…fits her personality!!💚💛🧡

I love watching the family gather. Wish my family lived closer. ❤

Monica’s hair is absolutely adorable on her! It’s making me want to do mine like that now. It looks SO good on her!

The walkways are just perfect, congratulations to Pedro and his team! And Monica that haircut and colouring are perfect too! It’s wonderful catching little glimpses of the family together, but we missed Benjamin. I don’t know how you just keep topping it everyday!

Monica definitely looks more like your Mom now with her new hair! She looks great. Great harvest! And the pathway looks gorgeous!

Oh, so pretty! Love it! How often do people ask if the can have their wedding, graduation photos taken at your place . I once had a old 1914 Craftsman style house I restored. Beautiful yard. I would get a knock at the door, someone asking if they could get pictures taken for their engagement , wedding, graduation pictures. The ultimate compliment.

Love Monica’s hair!!! Huge change and it looks fun!!! You go Monica! Great recipe!

Yay! A cooking video with Monica! (Your hair looks gorgeous, by the way.) What a wonderful mix of garden, family and cooking. Pedro and his crew are master artists, too! 😊

The stone walkway and patio are the added touch for your pond area, and curves around the landscape are set beautifully. Pedro and his guys did an awesome job! The walkway stones are so well placed around the pond and the boulders to give that natural look you had planned for your lush landscaping.

Listen I'm from Trinidad and Tobago. Pepper in ingrained in us. Lol. Monica laughing and Laura coughing is such a sibling thing.

Monica's hair is so cute! You sisters (and Mom) have the best hair! Stone path is awesome and will look amazing with all your finishing touches on the edges.

Pedro and crew deserves a huge shout out! Excellent perfection what a gorgeous masterpiece!🪨🪨🪨🖤

Oh, & 2 tips. Get in the habit of scraping veggies etc with the back of your knife. It will save the blade's sharpness, & you only need to run your canning jars through the dishwasher. Boiling isn't necessary anymore. I love your channel, & family! 💕 beautiful girl, pond, & property ♥️ 💖 nurse Judi in Scottsdale and E Minister. Many prayers 🙏🏻 especially for moms recovery 🙏🏻 ❤️

Hi Laura! The back of your gator looks like a farmer's market with all the gorgeous fruits and vegetables! BEAUTIFUL! Love the pond pathways! I've always pruned my tomatoes and they did okay, but not as productive as I had hoped. I didn't prune them this year and had tons to can and eat fresh! What a timesaver and an eye opener!

Monica’s hair really looks great ❤

Monica's hair looks gorgeous. Love seeing your family enjoying time together. 😊

The pathway looks great!! I love that your family is close and that you’re making great memories. We love peach jalapeños jelly. It’s wonderful over a block of cream cheese.

First of all Monica looks adorable. Love her new style. Second, the stonework looks impeccable. 👌 and last, yall should try making peach salsa with all your peaches. Maybe use some habaneros or some jalapenos. One year i made a batch and people ask me to make them still to this day.

I don't even cook but I do enjoy watching you cook. Adding Monica and Mom is even better.

Happy to see you working together with your sister! My sister and I don't have that relationship. It is a hole in my heart. Cherishing the moments of family time is so special!

What fun!!! I love seeing Monica and the rest of the fam. Monica's new hairstyle is gorgeous, love it! Once again, how you ladies get so much done in a day is totally amazing to me. Thanks for sharing your day and as always, I look forward to the next one--and the pond pathway is magical🥰

What a fun video! Always love the full family together, sisters and mom. LOVE the pond and seeing how you're transforming it to such a masterpiece!!!

I love Monica and her new hair. Always glad to see her and Ms. Susan in the videos.

I LOVE LOVE Monica’s hair!! It becomes her SO MUCH! Nice move!

Lovely video!!! The stone pathway and patio are perfect craftsmanship. Pedro and his team take pride in their work! Canning the peppers with Monica and your mom are such fun. Thank you for sharing your family with us❤ Canning is a favorite memory with my mom who was born in Fairview, OR❤❤

I have to add that I enjoy the cooking segments. I know Laura does not always feel totally comfortable, but we viewers are enjoying all of it. Just so you know, Laura.

Family. Laura's and all of G A followers; the absolute best! One of the best words to describe spending time each day watching these videos. 😊
