Several months ago Andrew and Kelly won a membership to the botanical gardens at a silent auction. They gave it to use since they thought we would get more use out of it. We finally got around to using it Saturday morning. It was a BEAUTIFUL day. Highs were only in the mid 70's and it was sunny!! Perfect day to spend outside enjoying the beautiful gardens. We had a wonderful time!!! I had only been one other time when Ben was 18 months old and Matt had never been. So it was a new experience for us all. We are very lucky to have such a great botanical gardens. It is very large and full of lots of fun activities for kids.
Ben took a picture of us. His perspective is a little low!
The special exhibit at the gardens right now are beautiful painted butterflies. There are over 20 with different themes. The kids had a great time searching for them and picking out their favorites.
The butterfly house is just beautiful. I had a great time playing around with my camera settings to get some fun pictures.
They have a wonderful children's garden with lots of fun areas for kids. Kate was excited to find the prince frog!
We had a yummy picnic lunch.
We ended the day over at the aquatic garden. The kids even got to try out fishing with nets. It was really fun.
It was a fun morning! I am sure we will be headed back soon.
